Pulling for race #177 & race #86 in the Unlimiteds, and the two Thunder Mustangs in the Sport Class!

Boy, you are optimistic if you think 177 will even be there this year considering they still haven't flown it yet.

Chunks

It and my T-28C will both be there. SNJ rolled off the Dallas Tx line on 9-9-1944. Got my airworthiness today. 9-9-09.

Stop by and say Hi.

Unfortunately not this year! Had a great time last year!

Thu Sep 10, 2009 12:33 am

Ill be there starting next Thursday evening. There's no way it's going to be as good as last year but it's still gonna be great.

If you guys want to know a great band to check out go to Brew Bros at the Silver Legacy during the weekend...my buddy's band Steel Breeze is rocking the place. The singer is easy on the eyes too!

Thu Sep 10, 2009 1:21 am

I will be working in the Rolls Royce Heritage area (east ramp) and I will be looking forward to seeing Chuck's SNJ-5C too.

Come on by and say hello,

I fly out of London on Tuesday ready for my first trip to Reno.

So funny thing happened with the RARA today.

I called and offered our B-25 for any flyer overs they might want to have a bomber in as a courtesy while we were in town, and they said sure.....the rate is $10,000. I said wow, your going to pay me, Im offering it for free though......They replied with, no you pay us $10,000 to do a 1 time fly-by!!!!!!!!!!!


WoW......I guess I better find some airshow that would like a B-25 flyover....atleast it would be appreciated instead of billed!!! :D

Is this part of the Obama stimulous package or something?
