Default Metroplex Jets Update

Well it seems as if the weather Gods are going to allow us to have some this weekend. As far as food goes, I'm going to bring my own grill and cook hamburgers, hotdogs, chilli dogs, chips, and drinks like last time. If you are a registered pilot you can have a hamburger, chips and soda on me. I wish I could do more but I don't have the deeeeeep pockets that Frank Tiano has. One thing of interest is that the Thunder Birds are flying this weekend at Alliance Airport. We all need to keep our jets lower than the 400 foot ceiling that the rules apply to. I'm sure those F-16's will be comming right over our airspace. No one has contacted me from the USAF, but we might even have to not fly during the show. I'm not anticipating any problems, but they will have control the airspace. Camping will be allowed overnight on the flightline.....but no drinking of alcohol. What goes on inside the trailers is another story......but nothing outside. I contacted channel 5 news and let them know we will be out there. Maybe we can get some publicity.........maybe Secret Agent can demostrate how to impale a fence post correctly.........so lets get the word out and have a big turnout. Invite your neighbors and have them sit on out flightline and watch the airshow from the speedway.........regards for now....see ya soon.....Perry Herring
