Howdys,

We have rounded up allot of great pilot prizes and raffle prizes for the Pro Bro 3D Fly In in Houston March 15-16, 2003.

This is a partial list of the prizes I know of, or currently have in possession as of now. There is a good chance we will have more than this. I heard word, of chance of a OS 46 or 50 Motor showing as a prize however not confirmed.

I added up the list and it came to over $1200.00. That not TOC money, however not bad for weekend Fly In.

Item Value

Top Cap ARF $160.00
Morris Knife ARF $150.00
Top Cap Kit $100.00
Gee Whiz Bee Kit $90.00
Hard Bet Kit $80.00
Aeron Kit $60.00
Hobby Shop Certificate $100.00
2 Tru Turn Spinners $70.00
Tru Turn Hats $Priceless
3 Futaba Knee Pads $25.00
Hobbico Cutting Mat $14.00
G.P. CG Machine $23.00
MonoKote Heat Gun $20.00
G.P. Multi Sander $6.00
5 Gem 2000’s $120.00
6 Krazy Leg Gear $150.00
Assorted tools and stuff $I Donno

I think I might be going if I am still in Houston then.

Can you post a map or link to the Clubs website?

Might help others out too.

Default Chuck

Hey Chuck - I'm sure that there would not be any problems with the Aeron raffle winner getting an ARC instead of a kit <LOL>. But since Texas 3D was trying to talk me out of my new Aeron that I'm building, I don't think that the ARC is going to happen! But you better watch Texas 3D, he's been 'eye balling' that Aeron kit for a while now

Dang. How did you guys find out I am building the Aeron

No Kevin, the Aeron kit is safely sitting in my office, and waiting to be raffled off. Thanks and sorry for not mentioning the donation earlier in the thread, but Tony created this thread without asking my permission first LOLROTF

OK OK.
Tony, I got confirmation from Cy Fair and Kingsway RC (local hobby shops), that they will donate some stuff also. Don't know what yet, but as soon as I have it, we can add it to the list.
You can add however 2 Gallons of 20/20 fuel, as well as 2 Pro Bro hats for the raffle.

Gator, let's start worrying about the weather next week.
If it rains, and nobody comes to the fly in, I'll guess that Tony and me will win a lot of raffle prizes. Yeah Baby
So I'll be there rain or shine !

Ynot, I am trying to get samples of a new hobby adhesive that is hitting the market. I am going to be a distributor for them and will try to get some for next week. Anyway, I will give up a pair of the carbon fiber gear for profile planes as a giveaway, that is a $24 value. Now everyone has 1224 reasons. Jeff Williams

Gator, I think I came up with a cheap way to fit our airplanes safely in the trailer. I spent $12 at home depot and I think we could fit 15 to 20 profiles in there tied down. [email protected]
