QuanMeister,
My wife and I will be driving back from the New England event and I hope to stop in on Saturday, I'm pretty sure Steven will be going with either Hotwings or SteveL as Steven and SteveL will be home early during the week before the event.

Well Mike lets not be bashing Disney, I am guessing you know it must be a good place to hide things as you have not been caught yet. See yall in a few days.

Just cause they would not hire you dosent mean its not a good place to work.
Well now, there is a pre-requsite for working at disney as a "man" and well I for one know that I don't fit that alternative lifestyle.
However...Rodney on a 3 wheel Trike....well...there ya go big boy!:Owned

Is it OK just to drive there Sat. and watch the event?

Yes, you're more than welcome. We will have food for sale at lunch time, everyone should check out one of these events. Feel free to ask questions, watch, and learn. We should have some room for beginners if you want to fly too, all thats required is AMA.

Gee, Andy...I would hope so! Actually, this should be a priority. Beginners are avoiding fun flies more and more these days. Give 'em their space and let em fly.

That is good to know...I have 4 friends who would like to watch the event whom I taught to do basic heli flying.
Sadly I have to attend a seminar on Fri- Sat AM but I will be able to make it and watch too. Maybe next time I will fly. Thanks for the info.

You're exactly right Erich, its one of the reasons I mentioned it. We would like to expand into doing some seminars next year, I'll put you down for F3C :)

Why wait, I'll do one this year if anyone is interested. There's a 90 kit to be won at my contest in March, ya know...people have to get skooled in order to get a shot at it ;)
I would love to see someone at JAX this year barely doing loops with a Trex 500 win the 90 in March.
