Steve, my cell phone is 601-415-4445. Daytime work number is 601-634-4297 and home number is 601-638-8286

Got it, Bobby.

I'll call you tomorrow morning.

I must have overlooked it but what time should we be there???




Thank you,

Mike Hoffman

Is the field going to be open on Friday? Me and my buddy were hoping to fly there on Friday, anyone else coming in on Friday?? If so let's all go practice at the field if we can. Please let me know.


Conrad Young

The schedule shows were starting up at 830.

Morning Everybody

Forecast is looking good for the weekend. the field will be open on Friday up until dark. The park ranger comes by and checks on stuff and then closes it. Doug told me that there is a campsite with RV hookups less than a mile from the field. I plan to be there early Saturday morning, wanted to make it on Friday but work might keep me from it, still a possibilty though.

Eddie

Eddie,

What's the drill at the field? Do we need to "check in" with anybody on Friday? We weren't planning on flying, but I've got a new fuel system that needs checking in the air. I ran it on the ground yesterday and everything seems okay, but I do NOT want to be messing with it Saturday.

Steve

Open flying on Friday, we might be the only guys there. Their frequency box is locked up, so if there a several guys out there, coordination will be up to you guys. They know we are going to be there so we might get lucky and have an open pin box.


eddie

Howie and Myself plan to be there on Friday.

Conrad

Thanks, Eddie.

Hopefully, I'll only need one flight; but if Tobe's DA 100 makes it back in time, he'll want to fly his Edge too.

He and I have been really snakebit since we started this game. We've had more heartburn with stuff not working right, falling apart, etc., in the last three months than we've had in the past three years. I hope its not a sign...

Conrad, hope to see you and Howie out there Friday afternoon.

When it rains well you know!!! You should have plenty of time to work on stuf and there is a hobby shop in Mt. Pleasent as far as I know. I will try and find there location and name.


Eddie

I am getting pumped, I should be doing my maiden and initial trimming on friday morning. I hope that DA is a user friendly as everyone says. Is anyone planning to go out to dinner on sat after flying?

Eddie,
Who is going to be scorekeeper for the mini contest on Sunday?
Will you have a printer at the field?

I have Dave's IMAC Scoring program on my laptop, but do not have the 2006 knowns entered. I can bring my laptop and If you can get somebody to enter the 2006 Basic and sportsman knowns, then we can enter the scores from the mini contest and give comparitive performance reports to the pilots. These reports are great tools to se how you are doing compared to others on a particular maneuver, and shows where you are loosing points and need to improve.

Also even though I am flying basic I know the aresti, scoring, stuff really well from being CD of 5 contests. Let me know if you need help with the instruction phase on Sat morning. If you like I can give a spill on entering the box, and efficient flightline running...etc..

Let me know or give me a call

Dan

I called and left my pager number, Give me a call tonight

Eddie

I downloaded the scoring program from the site but can only run while on the net.

Eddie,
I will give you a page tonight. The JRE operates on a webpage. You should be able to set your innernet connection to work offline. I nexer had a problem might give dave an e-mail

Andy, is your engine a DA50 or a DA 100 and what plane do you have? I have two 100s and 1 50 so I will be glad to help you if you need me to.


Bobby

Its a 50 and my first DA on 27% H9 CAP. Its my second cap and I am used to running a finicky fuji 64 so this should be a much better combo. Thanks I will definately take any the help I can get.

10-4. You will love the DA 50!!

Bobby

Forecast calls for clouds and 25mph winds on Sunday, guys...[]

Saturday looks good, though.

25 mph winds thats like flying in Odessa. They call that a breeze.

eddie

I think we flew in 25 to 30 at the powermaster contest atwo years ago

We can do a recreation of the 04 TAS.

Will there be concessions? If not how far to food/convienance store?

Good Thinking Dan

Sorry no concessions. There is a coke machine close to where the field is at the camp ground. If you go back to town it is only 3 miles. It was hard to find anyone to do concessions since the fire ban here keeps anyone from cooking outdoors. The field being at a state park would get us all in the gray bar hotel if we got caught and then picking up trash on weekends.
