Hi Doug,

How's your jet lag? I still need to download your Sabre program to my 10x. Can you call me 949-678-1094?

Thanks,

Mike

Doug,

Welcome back! I just got back from Buttonwillow an hour ago. Had the entire field to myself all weekend! Went thru 10 gal of kero and got my jetfingers back! Will have the Panther ready for first flight 27th and the F-18 soon after. Gotta get Henry to hurry up and finish my gear doors.

Put first runs on the new Rhino in the Panther. Oh MY GAWD, this thing sounds like A REEEAALL JET ENGINE!

I'm going up Friday afternoon, will have the runway nice and warmed up for ya on Sat morning!

where do you guys stay overnight when you do the 2 day mini-jet rally? Hotel etc. or do you drive back and forth to home / camp?

my field will be shutting down turbine ops after this weekend due to the extremely dry conditions around the base.

I'm sure I'll be jonez'n for some Jet A and will trek up north atleast once until the field re-opens.

c'ya

Well folks, another ButtonWillow Bake & Shake has been completed! A fine time was had by all with no disasters. We'd like to thank our sponsor for his support!

Evidence that the newly instated 50' AGL ceiling at ButtonWillow caused no major concerns will follow!
