Haha I must be one of the newbies

I'm sad to say, weather is preventing us from attending.

We're in OKC and, if all goes well, will be in Reno by noon hanging out in the T-6 pit with #64.

I'll be there Fri-Sunday. First time, so I have no idea where I'll be. If you see the black vest and O.D. shorts, say hi!

Nice article on "The Bear" in Air and Space Mag. Guess we will see if she lives up the hype. Looks to be a strong field this year.

Does she have a little friend (a 1340 is no problem to feed, an 1820 is doable...2 2600s...uh, don't think so). :)

Are you saying 2600's have a drinking problem?! :lol:

Its only a "Problem" if you admit to it :lol:

I'm sure the fuel consumption, though tremendous, is one of the least of the operators worries compared to maintenance and insurance.

So, on my way to the airport Friday morning, I got the phone call...you know the one cancelling leave for the weekend :evil:

Short story long, I didn't get to Reno this year. Could someone please post a picture of Chuck's SNJ-5C?
