David, breakfast is pretty covered Thurs-Sat. I'm more concerned about desserts for the evening meals.
But knowing Debbie, I'm sure she will cover both ends of the day.

Dawn's father in law (Steven's dad) fell and broke his hip the other day. Had surgery yesterday. She's got her hands full right now.

OK Guys, I will be there Wednesday and will have a fresh from the FBO filling truck 55 gallon drum of Jet-A with me in the trailer, I will sell it at current cost, almost 4.00 a gallon, and I have a pump to fill your fuel cans with. Say 20$ for 5 gall of fuel. If we run out I can go to the FBO, and get it filled again easily.

OK, just got back from Illini Jets at Horizon. Had a great time. Juan Pablo Montoya was there one day. Besides driving Indy cars he also flys RC
Time to get this thread active again. Don't have any new news to report yet on the SW but will as I get in touch with everyone.

Tony I have seen you fly and have no worries about that, we will go through and make sure you understand all your safety and precaution checks a good pre-flight will get you up a couple times on it and I will help you with getting your waiver I will be there probably the whole week before the event just holler at me if you need my help brother..

Call Dawn at Midway Travel - she can hook you up 972-264-4288
For those that don't know Dawn, she is a jet flyer also and will be at the event

Hope you can make it Alan.

>Well Bob! Guess what. It's not is the cards for me again this year. I was really looking forward to flying with the group again and meeting more folks. Looks like a really nice facility too! Unfortunately, my Turnaround schedule was moved up to Sept 1st. BUT....as the old saying goes....."no bucks, no Buck Rogers!! "

Hope to see you and the group again soon!
