Dan,

Great news! Sorry you could not have made it down, I will keep yours in mind, seems I owe you a trip!

Whats the DA up there? You guys are at like 12 million feet ASL, no?
Naw, it's not that bad, we are at at 4950', so on a nice 90 to 100 degree day, we'll get to 8000' to 9000' DA. Our jet rally the end of May it really isn't that bad, maybe 6K' DA. We make up for it with a 800 ft runway.

Thank you guys. Seems many of you knew Mark...of little surprise, he touched many lives.

Dan, you coming to the dark side? You move to flying fixed wing turbine?
Hi Dave!
Yep, I have always loved jets, but not as much as helis. I am building a Ziroli F9F Panther and have a P-80SE sitting waiting to go in it. I have the fuse built and am sanding on it and will complete the wings this winter. Hope to fly it next year.

You should come out for our jet rally, it will be May 21-23 next year. I wanted to come down to the SIn City jet rally, but didn't get the Panther finished in time. I always love coming to Vegas to fly with you guys, I really miss the SNSRC, it was a blast!!!

Take Care,
Dan

Dan, tell Dave who's gonna fly the maiden on your Panther.......

Yes Dave, When the Panther is ready for her maiden, I have lined up a super-hot pilot for her first flight!!
Here is a photo that exemplifies his skills


Gotcha Ryan!

Actually Ryan is a fantastic pilot, he just had a little oops this one day, and I happened to be there with my camera! I have a lot of fantastic shots of him with his jets. Now if I could just get him to slow DOWN when he flies.
