I'm there Duk! Gonna put first flights on the Tutor and more flights on the twin F-18E!!! I'll be there Friday afternoon with rusty thumbs. Haven't flown since CA Jets. I called and ordered Dave Presta to show! He's used to taking orders from the Munchkin King, sooooo, following mine should be easy!

It's always a pleasure.
It's always fun getting together with friends at Button Willow.
Wish you could join us.

Look forward to a great day of flying on Saturday.I will bring the Bandit and the Boomer-Bang.

Is anyone planning on staying over Sat night ?

I can't get outta work early enough to come down Friday, and I'm not really interested in 7 hrs of driving for a one day trip.

To avoid disappointment, you may want to verify that there will be someone there Friday morning to let you in. Since the field is a full-scale runway, the club is required to padlock the gates and not let anyone in unless they have a unicom with which to communicate with any full-scale traffic. i.e you can't just turn up and assume that you will be able to get in.

I suggest that you check with Duck-Duck (Afterburner1) to see what time he & the others will be there.

Rafael,
Make sure to get ahold of Kenny Falconer and join the club if you want to fly at Buttonwillow. This will help keep peace with the local's and make sure that turbine pilots always have a place to fly.
His email is [email protected].
Later,
Dave
