when the two of us get together this thing will be awesome


Look at that extreme humility ;) hehe - just kidding ya Gary. Thanks for doing this, it is for a great cause. Wish I could make it that way with you guys!!! But my wife and I have a baby boy coming during that time - so I must be a wee-bit closer to home :D

Maybe make it an annual event!! Be sure to get lots of pics and video for those of us stuck at home :)

Good to see the site back up and running - hate to lose a nice place like this.

[WayneBrown]

I'm signed up!
Once I decide who else from home will be going, I'll add more.
Looking forward to it!

Looks like a great replacement for the former Wichita Heli funfly which was always early on in the year, about the same weekend. It was always huge, so I reckon this should be as well.

I am totally stoked because it is only about 50 or so miles from my house. :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

[Gary Travis]

Follow the link Ivan, nothin like a good old Kansas pig roast.

[Gary Travis]

Yeah is right at 20 hrs straight trough for me, we may need a hand at the event I will let you know as it gets closer.
Gary

[WillJames]

17 hours for me, but I am planning on being there!!

[Gary Travis]

I have had a few people get ahold of me about doing some turbine waivers at the event. As always I'm game, I will need another contest director to do them. If anyone who is a CD will be going lets here frome you and get this done.
Gary

[Gary Travis]

Ken is working on the meals (pig roast), I have had quite a few people preregister, if you pre register please inform us at that time sa we can get an idea on the amount of food. Some have preregistered and later sent me an e-mail on the meals, it will make it easier for us if it is done at the time you register.
Gary

[WillJames]

Plese be sure to include your meals when you preregister. Make it easy on Gary and ken, it is not easy to put an event together. Lets try to help them out here guys/gals. Thank you in advance, and seeya there!!

[Gary Travis]

Greg, The feild is plenty big to fly that baby and five more at the same time. There are some pics on the site www.clearviewfield.com I have been down there at a flyin and they were flying the big Cardens and the heli's and not even close to each other, beleive me the pictures on the site don't even do justice to that field.
Gary

[Gary Travis]

Also you guys whoare dragging your home away from home, put a message in when you pre register so we can have the area set up to suit everyone. Ken is working hard on the field to get it ready and I realy think you guys will be surprised with this event. As I said I have been there before and can't wait to go back down. See You There
Gary

[nowellflying]
