If the workplace gives me the days off, it looks like I will be attending my first Oshkosh from Tuesday-Saturday. I'll be very busy with two special jets, but I'm sure I'll find a way to fill the memory card on the camera one way or another.

Randy, want to be put to work some? Call my dad, Rick.

I'm planning on picking up a rag or two and helping out with the Phantom and Scooter as time allows.

Sounds good! Looking forward to meeting you since I haven't been able to get to the hangers when you've been in town. This will be the first time the A-4 has been up there so I plan on having her spotless.

Hopefully it'll be a "cooperate and graduate" style EPQ! Doesn't the saying go that if you study for it with a beer, you have to take it with a beer, too?

Your experience shows. I'll have a gouge card for your knee board that should cover essential numbers.

Looking great. The one thing that I haven't heard about lately is the Paul's P-51B. Any chance on it attending? I'm dying to see it!
