I saw one up close. Very nice detail by Skymaster.

RE: Illini Super Jets 2009
Color scheme is Grey USAF with the Eagle on the tail.... Showed up nice in the blue sky with missles, and the light underside.... I was pleased...

RE: Illini Super Jets 2009
Looking good there, Dave! Your flyby shot takes me back to the days of Chris Brown constantly saying, "Lower, closer, slower"
Eli looks like a fantastic facility! Congrats! I'll have to pop by when I'm in the neighborhood... Cheers, Craig |

Gents
will there be any tent rentals available? 20x10 20x20 Redman mentioned there is a nearby facility where Kero can be purchased at the pump but is there a plan to have any available at the field? how bout oil? I'm trying to reduce my logistics footprint for this trip, but can certainly bring the whole kitchen sink if necessary. cheers buck |
RE: Illini Super Jets 2009
bueller....................bueller?????????:eek:
|
RE: Illini Super Jets 2009
No tent rentals. Bring your own pop up.
Storage tent on Friday night and Saturday night for storage managed by a security company. Kero is about 10 milkes away in a near by town. No oil, bring you own. |

RE: Illini Super Jets 2009
Have spent the last 40 hours setting up my Rafale. No sleep with the Thre Stoges in the shop (Dave Ribbe, Chris Huhn, and David Payne). Should bring life to the (2) P-120SX's tomorrow morning. Should be ready for the weekend!!

RE: Illini Super Jets 2009
Hey John!
Rumor has it the Rigotti's (double trouble) will be on hand! Seeya soon! Dave Rigotti |
RE: Illini Super Jets 2009
Too cool Dave.
Will see you in a few days. |
RE: Illini Super Jets 2009
John, I'm confused...your previous post says "Rafale". Are you sure you have the right airplane there??? :)

RE: Illini Super Jets 2009
New sullivan header tanks tomorrow and the old JR Rafale will fly again!!! Looking forward to pushing it along with the two P-120 SX's at full tilt!!
Couldn't have pulled it off without the help from Dave Ribbe, Chris Huhn, and David Payne. Between the beer bottles and bottle caps flying, we got the right equipment in the plane; I think. Going to bed now, haven't seen the pillow much in the last 48 hours! |
