Paul/Thomas;

Your right, I forgot that about Hurricaine 'Ike' had visited recently last year; it had wiped out Jetero RC Field, right?; I know I was talking to a guy from Houston last year, who said he was sill without power at his home, and attendance was down from previous years, looking forward to this years show.

Doug.

G-Pete

We will be there!

My Feedback: (14)

Our group will be there again this year.

Ken is bringing the 42% Super Decathlon which is a trailer load in itself.

I don't know what I will bring yet. Last year it was all civilian and the year before was all warbird.

It is looking like my big Stinson isn't going to finish in time for this year so maybe I will bring one warbird and one civilian with me. I probably should fix the right retract mount in the Bearcat and bring it back.
Here it is at Monaville a few years back.

Well,,,, as promised... here you will see the Statue of Liberty with the FLAGS FLYING... also note the GREEN GRASS on the grass runway, and between all the taxiways and infield... NOTE THE NEW PILOT STATIONS that allow one to be "CENTERED" on the RUNWAY NOW !!

Special thanks to Doc and DIANA for making this happen... they have been watering, fertilizing, ant killing, and mowing/manicuring the lawn getting it ready for the B-17 EVENT!! Of course Doc has had time to play a little... here's his YOSEMITE SAM JET... he laid up his own fuse, cut his own cores and assembled it himself... Says it is one of only a handful that were made... looks fast just sitting there...

Picture with Doc is ED from Roundtop , TX . He's a new BOMBERFIELD member and has been helping out ALOT on TUESDAYS with Doc and DIANA... thanks ED!!!

Note the "ROOMIER" OBSERVATION DECK 2nd floor... Now with new benches in lieu of the unused announcer stand..
David Johns, Nick Stratos and company removed it to make more room for the anticipated record spectators...

See you all soon!! (HI DIANA ;-) )

-MORE UPDATES TO COME...

-G-PETE Looking forward to hearing about a successful maiden on your P-38M ! VERY NICE!!

That infamous (but hated!) bomb droppin' Zero will return (with help) to wreak havoc on unsuspected allied aircraft on the ground and in the air! Space City RC Warbirds will be there and look forward to this great show! Paul

Ken,

No worries, THE FLYING ACE GORILLA is still at home guarding the front gate... although according to BB, the Gorilla is getting "OLD"
so BB painted a white beard on the ol' Gorilla !!!

Bob, DIANA says Hello.... and said she drives better with one hand than you with both hands! ha!

Here's more pics from the "patch"

Bomberfield members and volunteers taking a break from work... Getting ready to play host to a great fly-IN! !!

Only a matter of weeks till the stands fill with spectators, and the Skies fill with the best Warbirds around..
