This is an uncontrolled airport and any one wanting to fly in could do so, we had 3 full size airplanes at our last jet together.

Happy flying

So who will be attending??? I know Lou, Terry and myself will be coming from the OC...

Doug,

I am missing all these actions.

Please schedule next button willow fly-in in Mid-January, 16-18, 2007. I am sure I would be back in the States to fly with you guys.


Mike

It looks like the WX is going to cooperate, very slight chnce of WX on Sunday, sooooooooo I will try to make it, may be I can get a lift with Tam or can some one pick me up at the Bakersfield airport Sunday morning like around 8:30 am?

Any one Kenny?

I will be there, as will Sideshow Bob, Tam, and maybe some others from up here. We will be travelling down just for the Sunday.

IMPORTANT reminder for everyone attending - don't forget your Toys for Tots donation ! ... and don't feel limited to one toy - it's a truly worthy cause, so why not donate at least the equivalent of whatever the cheapest servo is in any of your jets, or the cost of the gas that you use on just one single trip to & from the Willow ???

Let's not be cheapskates ... for me, it really puts the donations in perspective to realise that these kids would love to have a toy that only costs as much as the fuel we burn in a mere two flights, nevermind the 1000 toys that could have been bought for the price of the trench that my Super Bandit plowed yesterday. Even though we may tell ourselves how hard we work to earn our dollars, fact is that we're incredibly lucky to even have the earning opportunity that many of us enjoy - so please dig deep to help put a smile on some kids' faces this Xmas. If you don't have time to shop for toys, bring out your checkbook - I'm sure cash donations would be just as welcome.

Gordon

I'll try to come down for the day on Saturday, but I have to be home on Sunday.

Gordon-do you want to elaborate or that or is it too soon? Scotty

See you guys on sunday. I had my daughter birthday on Saturday. Otherwise I be there all weeken.

Hi Tam,

Please pack my new MIG15 good, so Doug won't do something stupid to it. Shoot him if he try to fly it. He can fly my any other planes anytime, but not the MIG 15 without me there. I don't have JETCAT turbine before, so hopefully it's got everything I need to fly it, the GSU, Chargers, etc. Hopefully to see yall in January instead.

Mike

Mike,
I bring down one piece in my trailer. I got the charger and GSU for it.
You will love the Jetcat.
Brg,
Tam

Hey thinwing,

Is the L-39 your trying to buy at Byron the one that's white with the red star on the tail? Sweet jet! Hope you get it. If you do I'd like to check it out in person sometime if that's alright with you.

Can't make the willow this time again, Chirstmas shopping with the wife. Hope the weather holds up for all of you this weekend.

Ken

Hi Tam,

Thank you, Tam for the effort and the long drive. Have fun at the willow. Too much travel too little time, too little stick time for me.
Mike

could be raindrop on lens......at least he didnt pull my usual bonehead like leave lens cap on..or loose framing totally....looks like good time....congrats on all maidens....kpc

Well the weather stunk for pictures anyway: cold, rainy, dark clouds, ect....but we all managed to have a good time , its always good to hang with our buddies down south no matter what the conditions are. The club meeting was great and had a fantastic pot luck with so much food even Mongo was stuffed, thanks to the club and all the guy's who cooked for us in the rain and also had time to coordinate the Toys for Tots event.
Even though its a bit of a drive, still my favorite club to fly at and the members are always welcoming, friendly, and quick to help you with whatever you need. Hopefully we'll have better weather next time, and I look forward to seeing everyone again.

Take Care,
Dave

Awww man, I wanna go flying!!![:@]

Thursday Ian,

Ehab and I are taking all the jets that should have seen action at buttion willow will see action at tracy!! Your buddy Strawboss, is even threatenging to come! You might even get your turbine waiver.

Raf

Joe,
I notice that too. I'll check it out.
I just got myself another len.
28-70mm 2.8D AF-S. Half the cost of P-120.
My whole camera set up still cheaper than one of my demo plane.[:@]
At least I get to play with my camera. Dave never let me play with my demo plane. He got the transmitter glue to his hand.

Tam
That 28 to 70mm 2.8 is a GREAT Lens. You'll be able to supply OUTSTANDING pictures for the manual .
