I'm going this year. May be a few more from Oklahoma coming.

Couple of us from the Tulsa area are planning on attending again this year.

Don, will be good to have you this year. Haven't seen you in some time. I assume you'll be flying in as usual. E/W runway of airport will be open for full scale at all times. Can shut down N/S runway that we fly from if needed.

http://www.rcuniverse.com/forum/atta...mentid=1999756how about some twin os 91 df action. This baby rumbles

Hey, Lynn, your twin ducted fan F-15 would really get a lot of attention these days. Would be great to see & hear it fly.

Also, is this photo of you from 1987 the same scratch built A-10 your flying now? That's some awesome dedication to an airplane.

Joey, I'm hoping we can start at 8 AM this year. Electric ducted fans have always been welcome. Sorry if you thought otherwise.

Lynn, that's amazing, nearly 30 years. Please bring them both.
