Pilot Tents, and Camp Parking Almost Full

We have plenty of room for pop up tents. All pop ups will be located east of the #2 tent (see map). Additional camping and parking will be in the "Boondocks" area. This area is north of "Turnaround Lane
(see map)."

The two large motor coaches from Texas that parked on the grass across from #34, will again retain those spots this year (sorry about the omission of names).

Happy to report that all is going well, and should be our best show to date. Other than my back being a little sore at this point, we're ready for the big show!

Tip of the day for JOK attendees.

Tag your overflow tanks and fire extinguishers.

Have heard from many respected pilots, and as of now it is no go for the warbirds. Thanks for your input, and no further discussion is needed.

Thanks,
Lewis


World Championship Scale Masters Warbirds??????


Last year I noticed some very nice warbirds in trailers at JOK. I'm thinking what if we allowed these top quality championship aircraft 10 minutes to fly in the late hours of the evening. I was amazed that we had such quality aircraft on the grounds! I don't need any detractors, but just an honest opinion from you. Already spoken to some of our very top pilots, and they are ok with 10 minutes. One said "I would really like to see that." I would really like to see this too, if only for 10 minutes. Any pilot bringing such an aircraft, should send me a picture and specs of your plane; I really don't want to watch a Top Flight P-51 buzzing around. If we decide to do this, your aircraft will have to be approved for this 10 minute slot. I just need honest opinions like the few I have already contacted. No fuss or anything like that please.

Note...your aircraft will have to be approved for this slot.

Thursday is correct. It is sponsored by KingTech Turbines, and will be catered by "We Be Good Barbecue" (red trailer).

Our usual Friday night dinner will feature Keith and Sherill Yates as always. The Friday dinner is no longer sponsored by Jet Central, but Feliepe and Jose from Jet Central have donated 200.00 and 250.00 respectively. It is their hope that other manufactures and pilots will also offer to donate. At the moment we have 450.00 toward that effort. Prices for tickets (if needed) will depend on other donations.

Lewis
