RE: BUTTONWILLOW DEC 9th & 10th!!
 

Sounds like another road trip for me? Just hope my new bird is done by then...

Dougy that little rook is a sweet flying machine!

RE: BUTTONWILLOW DEC 9th & 10th!!
 

What are you bringing this time Darcy? What ever it is I'm sure it will be ready and smoking. [8D]

RE: BUTTONWILLOW DEC 9th & 10th!!
 

Carlos, I didnt get a chance to tell you good by, and it was a pleasure to finaly meet you in person.

I have a Flash coming in custom colors, as well as my 2nd F-18 I need to build...

RE: BUTTONWILLOW DEC 9th & 10th!!
 

Get busy my friend. Or better yet! Drop it off at Hal's and it will be done in 3 days...:eek::D

RE: BUTTONWILLOW DEC 9th & 10th!!
 

It was a pleasure too. I'm sorry for the lost of your jet :(, but if you look at it on positive side now you'll have a new jet very soon, or two :).

I also have to build mine and it may be ready for the Willow that weekend.

RE: BUTTONWILLOW DEC 9th & 10th!!
 

I'll be there with the new Harpoon and the good 'ol #6.

RE: BUTTONWILLOW DEC 9th & 10th!!

RE: BUTTONWILLOW DEC 9th & 10th!!
 

Hal's coming home tomorrow i'm going to see if he can help me bang it out.;)

RE: BUTTONWILLOW DEC 9th & 10th!!
 

Did you send the turbizzle in yet ..

RE: BUTTONWILLOW DEC 9th & 10th!!
 

For anyone who isn't on the mailing list ... here's the deal with the Toys for Tots...

If any of you forget to bring a toy or two or three, I'm sure a monetary donation could be accepted.

RE: BUTTONWILLOW DEC 9th & 10th!!
 

I hope I can get my A-4 done by then.

RE: BUTTONWILLOW DEC 9th & 10th!!
 

Ravjets and I are planning on going too. I will be at the Buttonwillow motorcycle race track on the 4th and the 5th of Dec (10 miles north of the flying site), so I might as well do another whole week at BW!!!!

RE: BUTTONWILLOW DEC 9th & 10th!!
 

That's a busy time for me but I'll try to make it. Can't beat the Willow this time of year.

RE: BUTTONWILLOW DEC 9th & 10th!!
 

Darcy will probably bring the trailer for me if I help him do another power build on his Hornet. Hopefully it won't be another IFR situation. I only do "I Follow Roads" and they were hard to see on the last trip. We will be there on Thursday if possible and we have keys now that we are official card carrying BARKS members.

RE: BUTTONWILLOW DEC 9th & 10th!!
 

Yes, infact I gave it to Jason right there on Sat, he called me this last Friday and said she's better than new!:D You sure cant beat that customer service, not by a long shot;)
Jason's the Man!

Hal thats a good deal, but this time I want the cockpit to be able to fit...:D

If anyone dont know it by now, Hal is the ultimate Power Builder/ Power Finisher, this guy can build these Jets with his hands tied behind his back and still get em' done in record time...but then again have you seen his work shop:)

RE: BUTTONWILLOW DEC 9th & 10th!!
 

Back to the willow again?? I barely had enough time to recover...:D

Looks like I'll have to bring some more of the fleet out! Doug mus be tired of me flying my kingcat trainer!!;)

I'm looking forward to seeing some more of Darcy's flying. Darcy, you put that hornet through some great moves!! I'm sorry for the hard landing though..[&o]

Doug E Fresh for presodent!!!:D

RE: BUTTONWILLOW DEC 9th & 10th!!
 

Hey ravill,

Rick

Raf

RE: BUTTONWILLOW DEC 9th & 10th!!

RE: BUTTONWILLOW DEC 9th & 10th!!
 

This is an uncontrolled airport and any one wanting to fly in could do so, we had 3 full size airplanes at our last jet together.

Happy flying

RE: BUTTONWILLOW DEC 9th & 10th!!
 

So who will be attending??? I know Lou, Terry and myself will be coming from the OC...

RE: BUTTONWILLOW DEC 9th & 10th!!
 

Doug,

I am missing all these actions.

Please schedule next button willow fly-in in Mid-January, 16-18, 2007. I am sure I would be back in the States to fly with you guys.


Mike

RE: BUTTONWILLOW DEC 9th & 10th!!
 

It looks like the WX is going to cooperate, very slight chnce of WX on Sunday, sooooooooo I will try to make it, may be I can get a lift with Tam or can some one pick me up at the Bakersfield airport Sunday morning like around 8:30 am?

Any one Kenny?

RE: BUTTONWILLOW DEC 9th & 10th!!
 

I will be there, as will Sideshow Bob, Tam, and maybe some others from up here. We will be travelling down just for the Sunday.

IMPORTANT reminder for everyone attending - don't forget your Toys for Tots donation ! ... and don't feel limited to one toy - it's a truly worthy cause, so why not donate at least the equivalent of whatever the cheapest servo is in any of your jets, or the cost of the gas that you use on just one single trip to & from the Willow ???

Let's not be cheapskates ... for me, it really puts the donations in perspective to realise that these kids would love to have a toy that only costs as much as the fuel we burn in a mere two flights, nevermind the 1000 toys that could have been bought for the price of the trench that my Super Bandit plowed yesterday. Even though we may tell ourselves how hard we work to earn our dollars, fact is that we're incredibly lucky to even have the earning opportunity that many of us enjoy - so please dig deep to help put a smile on some kids' faces this Xmas. If you don't have time to shop for toys, bring out your checkbook - I'm sure cash donations would be just as welcome.

I'll try to come down for the day on Saturday, but I have to be home on Sunday.

RE: BUTTONWILLOW DEC 9th & 10th!!
 

See you guys on sunday. I had my daughter birthday on Saturday. Otherwise I be there all weeken.

RE: BUTTONWILLOW DEC 9th & 10th!!
 

Hi Tam,

Please pack my new MIG15 good, so Doug won't do something stupid to it. Shoot him if he try to fly it. He can fly my any other planes anytime, but not the MIG 15 without me there. I don't have JETCAT turbine before, so hopefully it's got everything I need to fly it, the GSU, Chargers, etc. Hopefully to see yall in January instead.

Mike

RE: BUTTONWILLOW DEC 9th & 10th!!
 

Mike,
I bring down one piece in my trailer. I got the charger and GSU for it.
You will love the Jetcat.
Brg,
Tam

RE: BUTTONWILLOW DEC 9th & 10th!!
 

Hey thinwing,

Is the L-39 your trying to buy at Byron the one that's white with the red star on the tail? Sweet jet! Hope you get it. If you do I'd like to check it out in person sometime if that's alright with you.

Can't make the willow this time again, Chirstmas shopping with the wife. Hope the weather holds up for all of you this weekend.

Ken

RE: BUTTONWILLOW DEC 9th & 10th!!
 

Hi Tam,

Thank you, Tam for the effort and the long drive. Have fun at the willow. Too much travel too little time, too little stick time for me.
