Ok so who's going to be there? My wife and two kids are crashing the party and am looking forward to seeing all of my NC SMALL Flying friends again....Hey has anyone heard from JBoy in a while? I haven't seen him post. I guess I really have to finish the repairs to the Sniper and get the new tank finished.

Tim,

I'm glad you started this post. I logged to this session to get one one started for the same reason. I would like to ask you to bring some samples of your non-Cox-engine anodizing work with you. I have been talking up the Pee Wee you did for me with the regular (I use the term loosely) JCAC members and I'm sure there will be some there who might be interested in LG, spinners, etc.
Also, I asked you about "engine turning" (I think that's the right term) and as a result I will have a combat muffler to show you that I abused with a Dremel and a small, round, metal-grinding bit. It is not quite what I was looking for but it is "swirly and shiney". I would like your opinion on any improvements you can offer.

AS for what I have planned for the event, well I had trouble coming up with a suitable half-time show. It finally boiled down to a tractor pull (we are surrounded by agriculture if you recall) and a wet T-shirt contest. OK, it may not sound like a hard choice to anyone else but some of the new tractors are way cool. Anyway, if it rains you guys can do the wet T thing. Maybe we could get someone to look.

As for awards and prizes, one of my neighbors has a connection to "Hi folks this is Tom Smith for C**** R**** Ford in Cary". I have been working through my neighbor on a really big prize drawing that only participants would be eligible for. I sure hope it works out. Boy will you be impressed!

Alas (for real), my activities will be somewhat restricted as a result of recent medical manipulations. I too am looking forward to getting the group back together. Well, except for "you know who".

Just in case there is that outside chance I can make it...how about you put that map back up Raymond...I know you go past Hooterview and Petticoat Junction then turn at Pixly but which way after that?!.....Rog

Raymond LeFlyr

My Feedback: (2)

Roger (about your "outside chance"); yes (sigh), we will fly mostly outside as we have in the past. And I will feel really, really bad if you don't show up. In fact I might take that as a personal affront which will take me a very long time to get over because I am such a sensitive person. This sensitivity comes from the fact that I am in touch with my Sml Brd side in a special but manly way.

OK, I will let you off the hook if you can provide a hall pass or doctor's statement.

Directions are STILL on <http://jcac.netfirms.com>. Other people have written them down and keep them in their wallet. You do what you have to. But watch out for the sharp 90 degree turn just after you pass the nudist camp (grin).

Am really looking forward to this one.. as I do all of our little meets..and I wanted to let everybody know that the Hurdle Mills gang (informally known as Tri County R/C) is having a FUN FLY on August 14th!!.... Yep.. lots of fun events.. virtually no rules ... and some good prizes... I'm going to make an offical post soon when the flyer is done... and no.. this doesn't "count" as my Small Fly... this is just to do as we always do... fly.. have fun.. fly.. have fun.. eat... fly.. etc..

Gotta get something new ready for this one.. and of course.. the Hurdle Mills Small Fly will be around the middle of October... ain't this stuff fun !!!

This is very good news because you and your clubmates are such gracious hosts. Please register me as your first guest (Its the only way I can get to be number one, sniff).

Hey fellow NC Small Flyers.....how far is Smithfield BBQ on exit 321 from the flying field???

Tim

Tim,

I don't know about an exit 321. But exit 312 has such a feeding place. On the ramp from your direction you would turn left on rte 42 toward Clayton. Smithfield BBQ is just on the other side of the interstate.

It would be easiest for you to get back on I-40 and re-exit at 319.

I'm looking forward to seeing you and your family again.

Tim Wiltse-RCU

The wife has her meeting at Smithfield BBQ she thought it was on exit 321..maybe it's 312!!!

Well, looks like I have to pull out of the flyin this weekend. The wife has been in the hospital since Monday in a great deal of pain (Physical pain, not me!!) and they finally removed her gall bladder today. Hopefully she will be home Friday so I need to be here at the home front taking care of her. Sure hate missing Raymond's meet, its where all this NC 1/2A stuff started. Hope you guys have a ball and please post some pictures so I can see what happen. Hope to get back with you guys soon!

Thanks,

Bob,

Give your wife my best wishes. That gall bladder operation is a big one. Make sure she takes things easy.

Tim,

I have to get clearance from my parole ..., er I mean, I only have "approval" to go to the model field so I don't often get past exit 319.

Raymond, I swear I will call you on my next trip to Wilmington. I usually stop at that exit for lunch on my way home. You and I got some wild blue to kill, that goes the same for you Mr. Bond! I have Raymond's number how about yours? PM me.

BMatthews

Someone should have mentioned this event earlier or at least reminded me.

From here on in I'd like to pin notices of Small events to the top until the event is over.

You guys have a great time this coming weekend.

I am still more on the "I don't know yet" side of the question but I am planning to attend. Babysitting is still pending. So we'll see what happens. I sure do look forward to it though.

Tim, can you bring some of those .02 spinners with you? I would like a couple.

Hope to see y'all there.

Well Raymond, I was informed this morning that I will be having about a 15-16 hour night tonight....so if I work straight through, dont sleep and drive the 2 hours there, I might make it by 5 pm... naw, sounds like a bad plan to me, wish I could, and I wish there was a bit more central locale we could meet at[].(maybe I could crack the whip and drive really fast,Hey Tim can I borrow your car?)..course I also wish I had something ready to fly..

, Hey Vicman I will pm you my number we have one field about 4 miles off of 85/40 I gather you travel quite a bit, perhaps you could watch me crash sometime..Rog

Brian,

Roger,

Its nice to see someone refer to you as "Mr." but if you can't make it on Sunday (and I hereby grant you immunity) maybe you and Vic and I can coagulate at your field some day if its more convenient for the bote of yuz. Whatcha think?

Tim,

As I asked before, bring some "stock" and I expect to have an engine to send back with you.

I will probabally be out there again in the next three weeks. Sometimes it is hard to schedule. Let me know. I had my Corsair in the car last Wed. Squeezed in one flight after my first call in Clemmons, stuck the battery on the charger while driving and was good to go for another when I got home. I was all the way up in Roxboro, waiting for Mr. La...."s call that never came so I headed back. Two weeks ago I flew in my customer's back yard off 49.[8D]
