A "BIG" Jax blow out, Hodges Fly in and then Mulberry to end the traveling season

It will be good to see everyone again, especially the ones that couldn't make IRCHA.

Well since there will hopfully be alot of Knight flying going on into the late hours. What do you guys think of Hot Wings for dinner? Not sure what the feild cooks had planned. If im stepping any toes let me know and we will end it now.

[redneckteddy103]

do yall think that yall will be doing the night fly on sat night . cuz if i come up there i have to leave on sunday morning . i want to see berts night rig the vids from ircha were great but it be a lot better to see it in person .

[jaxrotor]

The club kitchen is planning on being open on Sat -13 only,plus it doesnt really matter, cook all the wings you want. Theres just enough meat on those wings to piss you off and make you hungry anyway!
We plan on night flying as long as the eguipment lasts,probably Fri and Sat,maybe Sun night.

Bert told me he would be passing his night rig around for anyone wanting to try night flying for the first time.

If Rodney is making his wings just make sure there is extra, extra double-ply toilet paper stacked high.

This event looks like it's going to be the Mack Daddy...looks like JAX is the new IRCHA SE!

[jaxrotor]

Maybe we should have ice cream to go with Rodneys wings....LOL

[Robert Hill]

Robert, you might want to post a map to the field, out of towners are going to want to know how to get there.

[fsusmithc2]

Yes please. I know how to get to the Lannie Rd. field since I was there for the event earlier this year but not the "other" field this event is being held at.

I'm considering having some t-shirts made, if your interested let me know your size and how many ASAP, so I can place the order, it's not all about making a profit, I will donate 20% , 10% to the club for allowing us to invade there field, and 10% to Helifreak for there favorite charity, which, if I'm correct is the american cancer socity.
