Thanks for setting this up, hopefully this year we will have warmer weather and kinder winds.

Please plan the meals at the local resturants so we can get together after flying and have a few drinks and laughs.

Roger,

This is one of the BEST Events in our area with no "Commercial" interruptions at all. This is TRULY a "Fly all you want Event" and with it moved to an earlier part of September it will truly be one of the Diamond Events to attend each year. The Phabulous Phantoms Brothers will be there in Full Force! We are Cocked, Locked and ready to Rock! More information On Route 66 Jets to come Soon!!! Trust me when I say, "You DONT want to miss this Event!"

Roger,

Gary, Sandy and Shelby will be there. This is our first time for this event and we are looking forward to it!

Gary

Hey T2, be sure and bring your PA voice and favorite tunes.....yea you can bet we will rerun the Winamac/Timmy Jingle ! ! !

Hey Patrick, thanks for the personal promo!
Say, how's about a 4th....Phantom that is?????

Roger,
Can't wait for the event. The rest of the AMT crew will be there with bells on. I hope there is lots of Jet-A there. You will need it. Once people get a taste of this site and non-stop flying you might have to call in a tanker. I also look forward to seeing Sharon and Jimbo. It only takes one Jimbo to support you, but a whole village when he is not there. I will chat with you this week.

My Pre-reg is on the way, This flying site has to be the best jet friendly field I've seen. Redelman flies those half mile out setups and still does'nt come close to the active runway. Gobs of unobstructed land for some serious flying.

I'm packing up 3 for this one, KC, ViperJet, BC.........

BTW, was this event inadvertantly left off the BVM calender of events??? STRANGE????? Hmmmm.......


John make sure to bring Ol'e JOHHNY "A" to this one, Have him contact Tom Shuh if he wants to just fly in general aviation for a day or two. I can PM Toms PH#'s if needed......

Roger the Nebraska crew will be there. Myself, My son Jason, Jason from Omaha, Mark and my son Brian. And yes we will bring the F-4.

Hope to see everyone there, will there be any flying possible on the 5th?
Looking forward to flying the hornet on that nice runway!
Dave

Git er dun man....can we help??? Litchfield AP is great for test flights !!!

Roger,

Sounds like we may have 4 or 5 Phantoms there! This is gonna be a good one!

STL will be there in force. WHMC

Don,
Sam and myself will be there. Talked to Tom yesterday he said he is planning on going. We need to keep on him about it. You taking motor home or getting rooms?
Kris

Empty the hanger and bring em all ready to rotate MIke....as you say there is no shortage of runway, sky or jet A!!!!!

Kris it looks like we are going to bring the motorhome.

Yea Doctor D should be AOK, although we will be busy with the setup.
So, bring the HORNET on with the Hog....OK? We are hopeful that our Hornet will be ready by 66 time......now that would be some show stopped, huh....a pair of hornets and a pair of hogs show center, wow!!!!!

I will be there & hopefully Sharon will be feeling well enough to join us with GizzieMae.

I have gotten a few folks confused regarding holding a preliminary flyin this weekend at Litchfield.
We, I'm just guessing maybe 12 or 15, are using the Club Meeting as an excuse to use the airport this weekend doing some demos and promoting the regular Route 66 Jets Event in September to the news media and locals. The Litchfield Tourism Bureau contributes several thousand dollars toward advertising and promoting the Man Event in September.
As of this morning mail we have 27 confirmed pilots for the September 6-9 Route 66 Jets so I'm guessing there will be what....50 or so paticipants? Later, Roger

where is every one going to be staying?

Thanks!...........

Does that make you a doctor? Or smarter??? LOL
