I hope that our r/c friends in the Tulsa area are ok today. Broken Arrow was hit by a tornado yesterday and I hope you guys didn't get any damage.

We are all good ! It was close to some of us but I have not had any calls from club members on any damage. Thanks for checking on us . We are making plans on 3-4 of us to come down late Thursday evening and looking forward to flying Friday and Saturday and enjoying hanging out with all you guys!

Might bring the p-20 Habu 32! How long is the runway?

bcovish 06-04-2013 01:54 PM

RE: TEXAS JETS - MT. PLEASANT, TX
 
I think the runway is 550 feet long with smooth overrun .
Plenty for the Habu 32 ;)

RE: TEXAS JETS - MT. PLEASANT, TX
 
The Habu should be no problem. If my memory serves me right, keep in mind I'm old, the runway is somewhere around 560 - 565. Anyway, I don't think you will have a problem.

Bpb-0 is correct. I've been corrected. It is 550.

I got the 550 figure from Google Earth

RE: TEXAS JETS - MT. PLEASANT, TX
 
Doug called and informed me that it was 550 and that's where he got it.

I've landed my Skymaster F4 Phantom there many times. You should be fine with the Habu.

Unless, of course, the Habu is made of that new, Lead Honeycomb material... :D

Everybody's is worried how long the runway is... It's long enough !!! I want to know how wide it is !!! And what is the elevation of the field, the elevation drop from one end to the other, and what direction is down hill, and runway headings, and the magnetic deviation, sunrise and sunset times, ATC/Unicom frequencies for Mt. Pleasant airport and Ft.Worth Center, and Jet-A fuel prices and hours of operation of the FBO there, and what brand turbine oil do they sell ... Have I missed anything ? I'm wore out, and I haven't even left the house yet !! :D

not worried. Just askin...probably bring the Flash too

smitty1001 06-05-2013 03:16 PM

RE: TEXAS JETS - MT. PLEASANT, TX
 
My version of Google Earth says it's 537 x 38. Let's confirm with Bob, double check with Gus, and verify with Doug in case these numbers are a little off.http://www.rcuniverse.com/forum/js/f...wink_smile.gif

txshan: it is a Flash friendly field<br type="_moz" />

Gus, I can't remember if there is electric under the canopies. If not I will bring my generator.

RE: TEXAS JETS - MT. PLEASANT, TX
 
Yes, there are a lot of outlets in the pit area. That should be no problem at all.
