It’s that time of year again for the early Summer Oil Creek Flyers OC-Turbo Fest.
As usual we will be there on Friday for anyone wanting to come early with the main day on Saturday.
Location is the Titusville Municipal Airport which is located in beautiful Northwestern Pennsylvania.
Titusville is located equidistant from Pittsburgh, Cleveland and Buffalo

The airport features a 4900 x 75 foot paved runway with generous clear over fly areas.
Jet A is available on site AMA and Turbine waivers are required.
This is a Jet Flyer's event, no noon time shows, just plenty of all out jet flying.
Donation is $15.00

Thanks

Hey guys, look forward to flying with you. By the way, I managed to get 4th place out of 20 in Expert at Top Gun this year.

Scott

Scott,
Congratulations on the Top Gun award!

Thanks Rich!

Scott

I'll be there if I can. The new job has me traveling more.

Hey Tony, then it should not be a problem to travel to Titusville:p

20 days until OC-Turbo Fest

Looking forward to it.

Hey Rich will the cracks be sealed before the event. Smaller plane, smaller wheels get sucked in you know! :)

Hey Bob
I asked Jack to verify the condition of the runway cracks, he personally inspected the runway yesterday and said they are indeed repaired.
His statement was "No crack for you!"

Hey All,
Things are looking good at the airport. No crack available for anyone! The Airport crew has a new patch and roller system, working pretty good. Camping will be available as usual, with limited power and water. I am trying to get there on Thurs night so I can be bright eyed as usual on Fri morn. My new Elan is ready with a new P-140 in it, and Yes it SNAPS! Can do it in an even shorter distance now. Doesn't lack in the vertical either! Hope all can make it, always a good time.
Giving my Mig 21 a test this weekend. Congrats to Scott Miller and Jim McQuen for their Top Gun competions.

Rich that looks like perfect sleeping weather! :)

Is there 110 to charge from?

There's power in the hanger, and some cords for the RV's.


Also... if you are coming out... let me know. I have a small quiet generator I can throw in the truck, so you can charge on the flight line. (old Yamaha briefcase style)

Rich....


Will you guys have keys to the Jet A pump again? I need a jug of fuel, and there's no reason to buy it here, if it helps you guys.

Thanks Tony. I have a generator but it's loud!

Hey guys, look forward to flying with you. By the way, http://finanziellede.de/hu6l.jpg

Hey Guys,
I have the keys to the Jet A pump and all the fuel you want. The Airport appriciates you buying fuel from them.
There can be power for charging run to the flight line, it needs about a 150 feet of cord. The cracks have been filled and look really good. There is plenty of room for a long line of pop up tents at the Pits. The only thing we have been asked is NOT to Spill any fuel on the tarmac. Please bring your taxi tanks and keep them hooked up.
We welcome newcomers and spectators. If you need a waiver, give me a call and we can set that up. Please bring your AMA cards.
Call me with any questions. 814-392-5097

The weather so far is looking darn near perfect, at least for Pennsylvania, NO SNOW in the forecast!! Hurray!
Hope to see you all There. We have confirmation Mr Grand Event himself...... Lewis Patton is coming.
He always makes an event extra special fun !!

Rich... hows the weather looking for up there? I know in Pitt, they are saying 50% chance of rain for fri and sat.

Tony I won't be able to make the event. I know you wanted to see the perceptor in person. I made four more flight this past saturday and the model flies beautifully!
I did a calculation for a 44 install using the wren pipe and a 40 ounce tank. The empty weight would be just over 8.5 lbs

Bob, sorry you can 't make it!
