Default 2012 Colorado Jets

The 2012 Colorado Jets fun fly is 10 days away. SO far I have 1 preregistration and I know Larry Laughlin will be here. I bet Shaz will be here. Anyone who is planning an early arrival (like Larry), please PM me with when you are planning to arrive on Thursday, so I can make sure I am there to open the field for you.

If you will be staying at a hotel, PLEASE avoid the Plaza Hotel, unless you want to meet the Larimer County Sherriffs Officers who are hanging out there waiting to bust the druggies and hookers.

[img][/img]Any interest in a new in the box TJT 3000 turbine? 27# thrust. Just the way I got it from Frank Tiano. Factory run by Chris Mounkly only. I'd like to get $1000 for it. Pics on demand...I can bring it to Co. jets.
Thanks...

I am also selling a NIB COMP ARF Tutor without the Landing gear (CARF sells gear for $1000).
This plane can be bought from Comp Arf for $3400 + $450 shipping. I am selling mine for $1900. You do the math. It is COMPLETE and can either be fitted with CARF LG or your own setup. If anybody is interested, I can haul it up. I will be flying my RTF Tutor at the event so you can see what a sweet docile plane it is.

PM me if interested as I will not be bringing her up unless we talk first. Can't wait fellas!

Gee Shaz, If you want to donate the Tutor to the "Poor CD" fund I am starting, I would be glad to take it! Heck give me your address and I'll drive down to Denver and pick it up

Your poor underequipped CD!

Hi Dan,
I haven't been on here for ages till tonight and just saw your post. I won't have anything ready to fly, however, I will try and drop by on Friday or Saturday.

Just arrived from overseas about 10 days ago so I will have plenty of catching up to do!

Congratulations, Grandpa! Like I said, I have so much catching up to do with the guys and the hobby. I feel like I'm starting over so be prepared for a barrage of questions.

Well, the event does not start until tomorrow and we have 8 pilots already tearing up the sky! This is going to be a great event!!
The best news, I talked Shaz into $1/week for 1900 weeks, and the CT-114 is mine!!😜
