An Alternative
If we neither get invited to the N/wolk flyin or decide not to go HOW ABOUT an Inter club Fly in held at our field (Jacksons), All the local clubs invited with a Swap Meet on the same Day Add in a pick nick and we might have quite a turnout. I have another Idea some thing I would be happy to organize and sponsor (a small prize unless I can con other people).
It would be a HUFO That is a Humorous Unidentified Flying object.Now you have to let YOUR indignations run riot it HAS to be funny and FLY (take off and land) You have to at least assemble(from a kit)the object. If you can con a test pilot they may fly it(sorry Wayne and Bob you may be busy )We could kick this idea around. Any of the above I would be glad to help organize

Comments of meeting
I have to admit I am one of the Members expressing a negative view as to the Norridgewolk flyin.
My reason is that it becomes nothing more than a static display with the BIG boys letting us use their airspace when they get fed up or have no one to fly but as soon as a member starts a motor the want us down. Now do not get me wrong I enjoyed the company of fellow members met a lot of new people and learned a heck of a lot just sitting around shooting the *hit. Maybe that is what it is about for me though the flying (and looking for mufflers in the long grass)is just as important. If we can not display our skills ( or lack of them as in my case) it is one side of the hobby ALL the visitors Miss out on.
A suggestion should we be invited (I see this is in doubt) is that we have some one maybe the safety officer be in constant contact with the tower (a radio maybe).That way we could fit in better with their program!!!!

Flight Sim
Ok so I shelled out a LITTLE money for another simulator, when it came home I found out it was the first version ( I thought it was G2) of Great Planes, It's far better than the FMS More realistic in flight, Any one have early copy's of add on's I might borrow?
thank you
Hi Guys, Thank you for the office of treasurer. I will do my best to follow in the footsteps of Art, and will be in touch later with him to find out all the details
