Eight days and counting.... 

I've been researching my Long-EZ, and electrifying it... I have all the components on hand... So I'm going to try to have it ready.

So hopefully, I'll have three (3) planes for Mike to maiden...

Very cool. Let's all pray for a nice flying day. It was nice out there today, a little buggy, but the air was completely still until about 5.
Hopefully I can get to the bottom of my carb issues on my 4* between now and then.
See you guys there.

Curtis forgot to mention that he did the maiden voyage of his 4* today, if flew very well, with no major hitches, besides having enging issues.

My big dilema is - Should I just bring a plane to fly, or bring some of the review planes that I need to shoot video of?</p>

I really don't have much idea as to how much time you put into a review, but you are probably getting only $1 per hour at best.

I would say, bring the Cessna and your ultra sport, and if you have room the P47 and if you still have them and you still have room, the; P-51, the Gee-Bee Y, and the Texan, you have done a few reviews



All kidding aside, it looks like the pilots meeting starts at 9:45, I am hoping to get there about 8 am, to get a few morning flights in.

See you there

Jon</p>

I'm going to need directions. It's been a long time since I was there. I have a GPS if you have an address.
