Hi Guys!
The "First in Flight" was great! The Draken and the Hawk 120D are ready to fly. Not sure how I will measure up against the great smokers out there (Mike T), but it has been impressive now that I've installed it on the Hawk.
Karen and I plan to be there by Thursday eve, if not Friday early morning.
Frank.

Heck Danno, if you load up tonight and hit the road tomorrow bright and early, you should get there in time to get a few flights in.
I have reservations set for Friday and Saturday night. Plan to be there 3 days.

I'll be there!
I was gonna compete in the 'Smoke Off' challenge this weekend at the event, but something "happened" yesterday, so I'll need to bow out of the smoke event. Here's what happend..... Coming home last night, I was met in my driveway by BigBri and Dom 'Spuds' M., kind surprised of their presence without calling me ahead of time [:-]. Anyway, we hung around the shop just shootin' the breeze for a while and I noticed BigBri was getting anxious about something. Suddenly BigBri barks out "Mike, go show Dom your new carpeting in your trailer".
So Dom and I are outside at the trailer for 10 minutes, then BigBri comes storming out of the house with his noticably heavier hot pink handbag and says "OK Dom, let's go, I'm all set now"... "Thanks Mike, see you this weekend, good luck on the 'Smoke Off' buddy! ". They quickly got in their truck and sped away!
Anyway, I'm down in the shop and just 10 minutes ago I went to charge one of my jets and I noticed I am missing a complete smoke system! I wonder if those two had something to do with it's dissapearance.
Here's a pic of the guy who I think sabotaged me!... and his cohort.

Mike, check your fridge and pantry, the smoke system was only a distraction. I bet a mouse could starve at your place now after those two are done!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Here is one of the airborne videos. I'm still experimenting with different camera settings and video formats.

Here are a few fly-bys and landings. Would've got more video footage .... but I was too busy spotting for the Sky Hogs (Dom and Brian). Bob
