All together: "Hello George and Brian"! (coffee and donuts in back, we are out of creamer)

Shaz

I love the smell of Jet A in the morning. I miss the classifieds so much I decided I should post and admit my addiction. My name is Jason and I have a problem.....THE RCU CLASSIFIDES ARE NOT WORKING!

I am also addicted. I don't think I could ever have enough jets. My brother says I need an intervention.

thank you for the offer of a delicious cup of coffee sskianpour. But like i said i have full control of my jet spending. NowI would love to stay for the meeting andhelp others weaker than i am.......but I just heard of an A-10 on sale at FEJ that would be perfect for my p-80's..... were gonna have to finish this conversation later : )

I can stop whenever i want........
I can stop whenever i want........
I can stop whenever i want........
Brian

Bigbri. GOOD news......... Flyeagle jets is having a Christmas sale and one of the sale items is an A-10. but if you act now, when you purchase the jet from FEJ, you get a months worth of free limo service from your home to the Jet aholics meetings, which by the way is being moved,

Meetings are being moved to our favorite grass field here in PA, this way we would have a bigger attendance at the meetings, meetings will start at 11 am on Sunday mornings and should last about an hour.


Mark

I have the UPS and FEDEX drivers here. making them supper tonight....after all the hard work thay put in deliveing pkgs to my house it's he least i can do....like i said

Brian : )

I see you are on a first name basis with the good guys... aka, Fed-ex and Ups. They both have been to my house, just yesterday fed-ex left 4 big packages on my front door step.

I get Christmas cards from both every year and once in a while a thank you cards for the extra business I , I mean WE give them......


yes, we can stop when ever i want
I can stop when ever I want....

Maybe next week

Brian, I think we need to talk, your sponsor says you have been MISSING your meetings!
Shaz

Shaz you are one to talk.................MISSING meetings............................

shaz i would love to make a meeting but i am too busy making my final jet purchases before i prove to everyone my strength and resolve.....like i said i can stop anytime i like......jetaholics are for the weak...and i am strong.......couple more jet purchases and i will be done.....

I had truly beleived I had thrown my addiction. I sold up 2 years plus, my beautiful kit Wren was sold, my electronics and the lot but I kept the nearly complete Facet kit and the BVM T33 to show I had beaten this addiction.........

I thought not of aircraft, jets, kerosene, servo's, I had empty days, struggling to put some meaning in to their fulfillment.

Then after junior went off to university and I no longer carted him to the rugby matches day in day out weekend long, I had time, empty, unfulfilling time, to do some diy got the tip (sorry recycling centre) cutting grass and cleaning cars....

I said to junior that I had lots of time on my hands and he said go get a model aircraft.........[:@]

From that moment on the yearning, and desire took hold, every moment, how to do rivets, how to re do the bits of hte kits that are not right, I snuck out to the garage and held jet components in my hand, wept at my weakness and desire over my now sold Wren.....[X(]

I don't know how it happened but a DSX9 arrived and so did parts to build a helicopter, the slow way back in, my credit card that had near emptied started totting up. My hits on Ebay, BMFA and other buying site have shot up, I surf every day and go to bed thinking of how to do rivets and panel lines, and nealy smelling kerosene........

So I can say with proof and strength....... once a jet-A-holic, always a Jet - A- Holic........[:-]

I need a Wren on prescription........

George, I deny missing meetings. I deny everything!

I didn't know where to post this but, I figured there might be more out there with the same illness. So I wanted to share my story.
About 6 years ago I was diagnosed with rare glow fuel allergy. My doctor told me that if I wanted to continue flying I would have to get rid of all my glow stuff and get giant scale gasoline planes. I did and was flying giant warbirds. Everything was going great until I started feeling ill again. Nothing had changed except that I flew my first jet and got my waiver. I went back to the doctor and he said I now had become allergic to gasoline prop planes. So now I can only fly jets. I have been forced to sell my pride and joy my corsair..... so I can get more jets and get healthy again. He said I should be fine as a turbine allergy or sickness has never been diagnosed. He said I could live a full complete life with just flying jets.
I have to admit I have never been happier!
Hopefully my story will help others get help they need and live a happier life.

Peter

My name is Shaz, and I am a Jetaholic. It has been a while since I attended a meeting. Since then I have bought and sold more jets than my wife would need to know about in order to divorce me. I will update my jets and get a letter from my sponsor for the next meeting soon.

I dont have a problem, I do this by choice.

Shaz

THE TRUTH COMES OUT...........Ok Shaz what do you have now?????????????

Shaz, who is officially my sponsor? George? Ryan? You?

All of the above?

At your suggestion I will attempt to temporarily hi-jack this thread too! [8D]



You are, at the very least, partially guilty of building and feeding my newly found kero addiction. Help me support it by letting me hi-jack your thread to shamelessly try to sell some of my boat, I mean prop stuff.

Wrong forum but anyone looking for a 50 or 100cc bird?

C-Arf Extra 330, DA-50.

AW Edge 540, BME 115.

J.P.

George, I deny everything as usual!
Shaz

Shaz you should be ashamed of your self, missing meetings denying everything and the worst of all, took a happy prop flyer and let him get a whiff of the kero, then sold him a jet that you bought. You have now caused JP to become a jetaholic, you are the worst.[8D]

That once happy prop flyer with an occasional heli flight has jumped in with both feet! Not only is he is thoroughly enjoying attending the jetaholic meetings with you boys....I believe the"whiff " in which you speak ofGeorge has now caused theair freshener at home that once smelled of warm vanilla, to be replaced with the scent of kerosene throughout the house!!! Way to go guys, luckily the 3 girls at home are loving it just as much!

AAAAHHHHHH..... someone else has found a use for "O-day Kerosine" a quick spritts under the arms every morning and I am good to go. spring is coming boys.............

same here hehe

Do you have any sisters?

Shaz,

This forum is growing out of control. You need to run a Jetaholics Jet Rally to cure all of us.

most enjoyable reading, this thread has been......unfortunately, I can't really offer much empathy since I don't understand the scope of the problem.. You see, for what ever reason, this disease, or involuntary dependancy on model jets has not affected me... For example, I have sold 2 jets in the last few months....no emotional attachtment, no last looks over the shoulder as the new owner drives happily off....nothing!.... You see I just needed the shop space for the two new CArfs that were on the way.... even though there are 3 NIB kits already sitting there, that doesn't mea.............................................Uh Oh.....Say, buddy, is anyone sitting in that chair?
