Default Houston, we have a problem.

See that fence, my property ends there, I only have about 3/4 acre. I wish it went on back like the picture might make you think. I wanted to buy that when it was for sale but I do not own a bank and it would have taken one. I have earned my trip to Houston, I wish it were not so far but hey you only live once.

I feel that you only need to own the land you take off and land on. Knowing your skills I'd say you are fine.

I might bring my big cap but doubt we will have room. But just in case. I had the last piece of the puzzle fall into place today, my transmitter showed up from repair so that is good. Yes Ulf I am bringing lots of carbon fiber gear. In fact I have new carbon fiber gear to fit the aeroworks extra profile as soon as they approve it. It will also fit the OMP edge and Morris giant sudo and new Yak 54 profile. Jeff Williams
Normally we won't allow the Scale planes. There are so many events for those type of planes, that we decided to exclude them for our fly in. But since you will be also flying profiles, just bring it along. We won't say no once it is sitting there. Only if you promise to put up a good show with it.
Yep Channel 21 has no problems at our field. Actually none of them has. I am sure we will have no problems sharing the channel.
Lots of CF gear is good. Will specially need one of the large ones for my Aeroworks.

Jeff, do you actually fly in your backyard ?

Ulf, that picture does not represent my backyard well. It is actually only 3/4 acre total including what my house sets on. I probably will not have room for the big cap but thanks for keeping the option open. Right now I am bringing two sledges, 40 size raven I had at Memphis and the ecstasy. Jeff W.

Looks like a good place to plant balsa scraps. Who knows next spring ya might have a big enough tree to build a plane.
