Wow... that would make it worth the 10hr drive out there. Is the airport sponsoring the event?

I have one question... the "Free Corn Hole Competition." Is this a gay thing?? is it required for attendance? (lol) I hope it's at the end of the weekend, becasue I don't think I could fly, if I can't walk properly.

Sounds great Roger!!! BTW We've had some new developments here New Years Eve. Our daughter Jenny got asked the question by fine young man and she said yes!!! So it's looking like a wedding will be on Sept 1st. Will complicate things a bit but sure we'll figure it all out. Hope we can hang around after the qualifier and enjoy your event this year. It looks like the kids want to honeymoon in Switzerland. LOL See Ya

Say Rick,
Here is the layout......18/36 runway is 4003' X75' without a crack or rough spot.
As you may note on the layout the runway is "X"closed to full scale with authorization from FAA.
It should also be noted that theparallel taxiway,for the RVs & Motor Homes,is undercontract to be extended to the South for the full length of the runway.
So come on with family & friends to fly day light to dark with late night foames til you drop.

Cheer, Roger

Yea Tony one could label corn holing competition a gala thing…..but a “Dr” will probably do well after all, all will be well in the in.

Anyway bring it on and find out for yourself.


CU in September, Roger

OK Randy so "Free" does it for you huh....great cause I need you to bring your L-39 expertise and get my Albatros trimmed out that I've had setting idle for 3 years.
I don’t know about you Lucky Pierre….with or without a ride you may have to just live with the “groupie” label.
Maybe Belluomimi or Redman should start a poll to get a vote on the question ! ! !
