I'll drive and let Bob P. operate the GPS. In fact, I'm thinking about putting Bob P. in the trailer and let him do his digital thing on the way.

I will be heading out Tuesday night. This will be my first time at a Jet Rally, hope to have a blast. I will be with the Tad at Golden West Models and we will have a big surprise for the show. Also I will have a Bandit and a Yellow F18 RTF for sale. I thought I would bring along a few extra planes and clean out the garage.

Tam, can you bring my pipe to Florida?

See ya all there

I'll try.
I'm flying. I'll bring what ever I can. Just don't to go thru the inspection at the airport. Specialy I fly really early in the morning.
I think it better to ship it to you from here.

"we will have a big surprise for the show"

come on... tell me... I will not tell anyone.. what is it..?

I just made and packed the most important
item for the trip. The offical turbo mug.
Now you can set ablaze your adult beverages
and not worry about a wet start or compressor stall.

David,

Would air mailing not be a more economical solution for shipping your receivers ? Anyway, I also have a lot of excuses to tell my wife why it is so important for me to go to FJ.

See you there. Again. Some guys are everywhere.

Best regards,
Nicolas.

Nico,

It seems, Fl Jets is going to be a lot of fun for you, I can see Eddie is preparing a turbo mug for your beers hehehe. I'm still capable of rowing if you ask me......Too bad you did not have in stock what I want... anyway I can wait five more weeks. You can bring it to me on your way to Cyprus jets, along with the P160 powered SJ16!!!! Has the brown van arrived yet?

Christos,

No UPS hasn't. Called JC and it will be tomorrow. Just ordered another six pcs as well today.
You'll love the thing you have to wait five weeks for, Mr. SimJet Cyprus.

Thanks for the invitation to your island. If I can arrange that in the short future, I will.



I'll be in Shangai in four weeks. Any jet pilots there ?

Nicolas.

Hi Gents

Kevin and I will be down with some of Trim's wheel and brake sets, Jet accessories, a jet kit or two and some "Adult" Refreshments, Canadian Style. Look for us at "The Rig" tent or around the SimJet Tent.

See you there,

Ed

Hey Ed & Kevin

Great to hear the two of you will be " down " as well. I am looking forward to some sun and fun!! I'll be there with the RAM guys and Tad from GoldenWest. Will have a bunch of new really cool things to show you. Its guys like you that make jet modeling all that more successful up here in Canada!

P.S. I'll be bringing some of our " real " beer down for the Yanks to try. Should get a kick out of watching their eyes glass over after a pint eh!
