Nice Mig 15. I believe it is John Redman's, if memory serves correct.

Well, I'm signing off for the night.. Heading off to Tam's little after hours party... More to come tomorrow. Hope to get photos of more planes as my time was limited today. It's just too cumbersome to get photos live from the event, so I'll shoot them up via DSL when I get home.

Well, it's unseasonably cold here.. Only in the mid 60's to lower 70's.... <grin> Normally would have been 80+

Plus, there was a steady 5-10mph wind.

Let's just say that he's probably burned the most fuel. His planes were in the air all day long. The Mig 15 goes good and the bandit does too.

Default Best Wishes. Thanks for the pictures & play by play.

The pictures and information made me feel like I was there. I lost my F-15 last Wednesday preparing for the San Jose Jet Rally, so seeing these pictures took some of the hurt out of my crash and made up for not being able to be there.

Keep up the great flying guys!!!

Hotelsierra: sorry to hear about your F15, try for next year and join us.

We just got back from Tam's wife cooking....IT was horrible food, I only ate seven servings!!!! Tam also insulted us by offering pool and other games after we ate...do you guys believe that? Anyway, we know his frequency!!

We will be flying early tomorrow (Yeah right!!) and Mike will keep you posted, so hang in there guys!

Regards, Ehab

You know what was not talked about or mentioned at all ! Tam's secret drinking fuel / fluid recipe: Was it spiked with 2380 or even better. Inquiring minds would like to know! Ya just can’t keep things like this from a professional taste tester.

Tam you sure sound like one of the real good guy’s Bkf

Memerable moments for me this weekend included: spotting for Ehab and having him say "Uh, Gordon, where am I ?";

Now that's a classic

To much Tam juice

Well, I just arrived to FT. Lauderdale and all I have to say is that I'll be back as this show was extremely fun and made my trip worthwhile.

The California gang sure knows how to put on a GREAT show.

Thank you guys for the excellent hospitality and for putting out an excellent show .


My Best Regards............Johnny Hernandez

I had a blast hanging out with you guy's at the event, and of course at Tam's house afterward. Tam sure knows how to roll out the hospitality carpet and make people feel welcome doesn’t he? As for the event, thanks Tam for letting me fly your Roo and your AM. After hanging with you guy's I went home and brought down my F-18 and started blowing off the dust, I can’t wait to finish that things so I don’t have to mooch off Tam and Jimmy as much. Anyway I am glad that I redeemed myself at Ping Pong and kicked Johnny's butt after he got all cocky and thought he was the king, and I still need to get Ehab back for covering me with smoke while taxiing back. Johnny I'm glad you came out and I had a blast meeting you and laughing all day and night. I'm going to call Fusinato and see if he will help me install my Ram100 in your F-15 when I go pick it up, I want to see how well it runs before putting it in my plane, don’t worry you don’t have to send your transmitter.... I got one!
Thanks to all who came and made this event great, I look forward to seeing you again.

Dave
