ManMachine.... ahh man... just hop on the AIRPLANE and you'll be here in no time flat...

You can probably fly non-stop to HOUSTON , TX.... I will pick you up at the airport....
You can battle and then be Home without anyone knowing you were gone for a weekend!

OK,,,, HERE IS THE OFFICIAL BOMBER FIELD FLYER as seen in MODEL AVIATION...
WE will have some serious Spectators... THIS WILL BE GREAT FOR OUR SPORT/ HOBBY...

Just click on the photo as you always do and then CLICK IT a 2nd time to make it legible!

Hope you all can make it....

What do you mean? We are 4 guys from Norway getting over to Bomber for warbirds, and yes we bring planes(2xP-51, P47 and SDB Dauntless), and we will fly.

So, join us. Make the scandinavian force stronger

Oh man, I wish I lived in Texas (or even somewhere in the USA!). I wonder if our fledgling UK Tank Combat club will ever get even half as good as yours.

Green with envy!

Hey Tomas, I hope you are keeping watch on the hurricane. The latest computer models show it coming on land north of C.C. and making a course up and to the west of Houston. Looks to be in your neck of the woods. Make sure you strap down the new shed and bring in all the loose stuff. If it comes in as a category 3 or 4 as projected it will still pack a mean punch by the time it gets to you.


Good luck,
Nick

JUST GOT BACK from an all day at BOMBER FIELD...

NO DAMAGE !!! WE ARE TRULY BLESSED!! Only that the 2 port-o-potty's were on their sides... and a few brave souls righted them...
luckily they had just been "FRESHENED" so they were clean and only a little "BLUE MAGIC JUICE" got out

OK.... yes it was wet until 12 NOON !!!

THEN THE SUN CAME OUT and dried up all the rain... and the itsy bitsy spider climbed up the wall again !!!

Really gents.... IT IS ALL GOOD !!! Just for those who don't know... the soil, clay out there really soaks up the rain fast...

IN fact by the time I left today at 7pm about 1/2 of the water that was on the ground , especially be RV PARKING ROW and infront of our TEXAS ARMOR CLUB HOUSE was 1/2 way absorbed.... the battlefield will be completely dry by Tuesday !!

BB and Nick and the rest of us were at work... Things will be perfect for this weekend... THE rest of the water in the drainage areas WILL be gone by WEDNESDAY!

WEATHER IS EXPECTED TO BE SUNNY ALL WEEK and will really help to get rid of that water!

So .... HERE ARE THE PHOTOS... for you all who know RANDY and those who don't.... HE SAID TO GET YOUR TAILS DOWN THERE NOW!!! also George Jones and Mrs Jones from New Mexico also arrived today....

Nick Stratos also has his RV trailer in position already...

SO YOU ALL THERE... COME BY THE TEXAS ARMOR BATTLEFIELD, check out the action, pick up a tank from RC COMMAND, do some battling AND SAY HI!

Gentlmen.........Start your engi Oops! wrong sport. GET YOUR TANKS READY. Ike was tough, but the battlefield weathered the storm. It is amazng how quickly the area dried out while we were there completing some last minute work. I know Nemesis, tanks will be ready, will yours?
