RE: Rt 66 Jets Litchfield Illinois
I am about to cancel my extra non-smoking room with a king bed at the Holiday Inn Express, does anybody want it before I cancel? My rate was $67.15.
Joe Felonk and I will be coming down Thursday night, we should arrive by 8pm, where are we drinking?
Please let me know.
Thanks,
John Roth

We have 50 new T-Shirts that will be provided to each registered pilot.
Those of you that still have last year's please bring them as I suspect we may not have sufficient new ones.
On yea our Model, the two legged one, will be attending the event.

I just booked a room at HI Express....Nancy at the desk said they have no 54.99 rate in their system......gave me the 67.15 rate....she thought the 54.99 rate may be at one of the other motels in town....
If you find out anything new, let me know.....Thanks...

For those of you wondering about fuel Rog has told me that there will be plenty of Jet-A on site at the Airport and we are welcome to it.
Also...................for those camping, there is a propane company down the road from the hotels and should be open Saturday as well as weekdays.
We will be meeting at ARISTON's for Dinner on Friday night and Saturday night as well for those that are interested. Last year we packed the house and the food and beverages were GREAT! After Dinner we may go back to the field and lay on the runway and watch for "incoming"
Glad to hear that Scotty will be making it. Got alot of catching up to do with my buddy. Cant wait to see everybody. All us St Loueee Boys will be there!

RE: Rt 66 Jets Litchfield Illinois
At this point our plan is to be there Thursday afternoon and leave sometime on Sunday probably mid morning or so. I think we'll make most of the whole event. I am looking forward to meeting Roger as he's been very helpful and friendly to me through emails.

Well I can tell you now the F-16 will not be ready to fly. I can't get the gear to hold enought air to cycle once.
Door's setup is seperate, and it hold all night, so does the brake setup. I also haven't recieved the transfurs from Aeroloft.
I am also having trouble finding FS 36942, I bought all of the local paint I could find, and ordered it from 2 other places and have not recieved it.
Looking forward to Meeting DocYates... Ive followed some of your threads over the last year. I feel as if I already Know you.

Hi Gary:
Airport map shows N/S orientation, 18-36, 75 feet wide with pilot stations on the east side.....much like Metropolis....sun only a problem very late in the day.....
Looks like mainly southerly winds, 10-15 on Thur-Friday and lighter on Saturday from the SW....then light northwest on Sunday...
Still nice and warm.....I still remember a few of those chillers at Superman......
