Don't forget the swap meet in Lebanon this saturday March 13th. http://www.cpaa.us/. I'm going that is certain. Yeah I'm still here, haven't flown in so long that I probably forget how! Snow everyhwere has finally melted. Seems every day I get a break from work, it is either snowing, raining or windy as ever. I need to get a home SIM bad!!!

Yea, we've got a lot of meltdown here too. I head for Florida next week, then when I get back, it'll be time to gear up for Toledo!

Woo Hoo!

Hey Bill,



You've been too busy


Good to see you back.

Bob

question. should i get there early? will there be a long line? i know it opens at 9, but i had planned on getting there around 8. im so excited!! this is my first swap meet/flea market! ill have my spit in hand to pick some stuff up for it, and maybe, if the price is right, leave with a new kit!

Earlier the better. The good deals don't last long. Sometimes you can buy the stuff as the guys are unloading their cars! Less they have to carry in!! There will be an auction @ 1300 (1PM). Super sweet deals at the auction. If you want to go giant scale, this would be the time. I've seen 1/4 scale 1k planes go for 300 - 500.00. Having said that, the more money you can bring the better the deals.
At one of the last swap meets, a Lady was selling 25cc - 100cc enignes for 10.00 a piece!!! They had belonged to her desceased husband and one of his wishes was that see sell them cheap so others could enjoy his once beloved hobby.
Be ready to deal with the guys. offer bottom dollar and wait if they refuse. Prices usually come down near the end of the show.
