Default Tulsa ProBro fly-in The PBF

Hi all. The Tulsa, and surrounding area, fly in is set. The date is June 28th. We will call this the Poor Boy Flyin (PBF). I hope it won't offend the ProBro's, but we are also including SPADS in this event. We wanted to do a SPAD event also and thought, "hey, why not both?"

We are even going to set aside the Helicopter runway (90 degrees off the N. end of the regular runway) for Pizza Box activities and combat.

All types of Funfly, spad, and of course, PROFILES are welcome, and 3D will be the order of the day.

Details:

Landing fee of $5 for all day (and night) flying, drinks and snacks for pilots.

Lunch will be all-you-can-eat pizza for another $5

Dinner at a local Mexican restaurant for those that want to, and then night flying.

Sunday will be open flying. We have a pretty loose club so hang around and have a good time!

We may have some events (perhaps PBF Rodeo?) if there is interest.

Ask away, and details to follow!

Gordo-plast,

I mantioned the fly-in at the last meeting and they are going to post it in our news letter. So, I need to know a few things. I have the date. But, I need time it starts and were the field is.

Hello Nukes.

The start time is 10AM but the field will be open ealier of course. The Best way to get diections is by looking at the map on the club web site:

http://www.orgsites.com/ok/baldeaglercclub/

There is "map to flying field" link at top, right corner.

King....Ha!!! Only if it means laziest, least patient and easiest to confuse builder on the planet and the cheapest SOB you'll ever meet...why do you think Spad exists in the first place?

As for flying abilities...ohhhhhhbooooooooy ...been flying 3 channel belly landing combat planes for waaaaaaay to long...just now getting my landing gear brain back...and that darn rudder thumb...the videos I'm seeing here blow me away...I've got a LOT of learning up to do! :surprised

Awsome Kyle. Let me know if I can be of any help. You are coming a long way and if you need anything just let me know!!! By the way, camping is available at the field if you are interested! No water but there is a porta-John.

Default Float Flying

Forgot to mention we have a small pond we've been float flying on, right at the field, trees have been cleared, and we even put in a dock. We've never had a big bird on it, but many 40 and smaller planes have had great success.

Default Flyer online

The flyer for the Poor Boys Fly-in is ready online at:

http://members.cox.net/baldeaglesrc/PBF/PBFreadya.htm

Our club site has a map to the field

http://www.orgsites.com/ok/baldeaglercclub/

Our field is 15 minutes south west of Tulsa, just south of Glenn Pool, OK, if you want to look at the map.

We're gonna do the baby pool for dippin', but if you like the pond, go for it.

Default Hotels

The very closest is:

Best Western , Glennpool (5 minutes from the field)
(918)322-5201

Other options:

Super 8 Sapulpa (a bit farther, and harder to get there, but cheaper)
(918)227-3300

Motel 6 West Tulsa (farther, about 15 or 20 minutes, but cheapest)
(918) 445-0223

There are lots of fleabags on I-44 on the west side of Tulsa that would work, but I wouldn't bother.


Let me know if those don't work and I'll check around. The Best Western is really easy access and plenty of services nearby.

Gordo! I tried the link to the flyer...but got those pecky little red-x boxes

Spadfest is in the books and we had a BLAST dispite lots of rain and mud...36 registered pilots from 14 states showed and many are hungry for more! Keep the Poorboy pumped up here and at Spadworld and I betchya you'll get a great showing...BTW...we're planning on it! Oh yeah, if anyone is interested, here's some pic from Spadfest

Tattoo, please try again, it works for me. Anyone else able to get to the flier? If it's not good, I'll fix it ASAP!!!

We would be honored if you came, and we won't even make you make a speech!!! We're getting very excited, and I'm getting a bit overwhelmed with to much work and too little time for RC!!! Right now I'm sacrificing flying for PBF Planning. But it will be worth it!!!

If I can be of help, let me know.

I checked the file name of the jpg's and came up with this:

file:///C:/My%20Documents/My%20Pictures/Pbfnspd2.jpg

Which means your image link is directly to your computer...so it would work for you, but not on the internet. (I think that's right...I'm pretty much lost with computers)...maybe someone else will know for sure!

We are really hoping to make it down there...we drove right through Tulsa on the way back from Memphis...and coming back next month sounds like a plan

BTW, we just started a new "Add you own Link" area at Spadworld here:
http://spadworld.net/links.php?c=14

This is for adding Spad related fly-ins and fun-flys and stuff...please please please add your event link...(you would be the first on the list)
