The Saturday Flyin is ON. Ill be at the hangar by 8AM. Ill have the Hooters wings and the local EAA chapter has asked if they can serve burgers, chips and drinks. My cell number is listed below.
It appears the entire east coast will be sitting under a large high-pressure area from western MO east. Furthermore it appears this high will extend to the Great Lakes and Florida. Mother nature seems to have lent a helping hand. Weather for Saturday is expected to be 64 degrees, 0% chance of precip, winds out of the south at 9. No weather two days either side of Saturday. As I mentioned in a prior post, all activities will occur at the airport, i39, Madison Co. Airport, Richmond, KY. As a reference, it is about 20 miles south of Lexington, KY. Vendors of which I have either received giveaways from or have received strong assurances from are as follows: I would certainly encourage all to remember this gang. Control Vision: free total AnyWhere Map software package Trioavionics: $200 discount coupon on the purchase of an EZ Autopilot Avery: A box of various tools and such Kitlog Pro: Paul has donated a Kitlog software package. Vans: Two starter kits, shirt, hat. Grand Rapids: 10% off coupon on the purchase of an EIS engine system. Riteangle AOA: $50 off coupon on the purchase of a new angle of attack unit Aircraftextras.com Brian Krauts post light system. I would also encourage anyone having anything to sell, to bring it along. Stick your name on it and lay it on the table. This will be the total honesty system. Everyone chip in and make sure nothing leaves via someones pocket, I sure would like to see all my tools, dies, Dynon, etc. be left behind as I need them just as much as the next guy:-). I only mention this as someone once pocketed a handheld out of a cockpit at a national gathering. I hate to even mention it but there it is. TeamRV is planning on performing their Oshkosh routine along with some just fun formation flying. A formation flight from the Ohio Valley RVators has issued a challenge on TeamRVs website about a competition. A nice little back and forth is going on right now:-). I have received an email from a member of The Falcon RV Squadron and am awaiting a confirmation. I have also heard from several pilots who are offering free RV rides to potential builders and builders. Direction via car: Off I-75, take exit 77 (KY route 595) and turn west. Go about 200 yards and make a right between the BP Station and the Shell Station. Go exactly 2.0 miles and make a right onto Madison County Airport Road. The airport road will take you directly to my hangar. Via air: Anyone flying in, be sure and check the NOTAMs as there is restricted airspace on the east side of I-75 for the army depot. For you newbies; I have turned the Vans starter kits into pre-punched condition. If you want to work with some aluminum, please feel free to do so. There will many experienced builders here to show you some pointers. You will be able to deburr, dimple with squeezer and C-frame, back rivet, buck, pneumatic squeeze, hand squeeze, roll a rudder front, and install nutplates. There will also be composite pilots here and I will bring along some West System and glass. My first airplane was plastic so give a shout.
