Florida, and the Tucson jet rally in one week made for lots of driving last year. The up side was that Justin and I each flew about forty flights that week. I probably wont be able to do that again this year. Ditto to what Justin said about Tucson, its probably my favorite west coast rally. CD Debbie Sharrow runs a great event. I thought I heard that the runway has been expanded?

Definitely worth the long drive last year......gonna do it again in 2005.......

Heard that the runway was resurfaced and widened......

I spoke to Debbie at the AJR, she said the high tension line project was relocated and it will not affect their field. Also the runway was widened, made a little longer and resurfaced. Should be a great time again, look forward to seeing you Tom.
