Hey Mark, I'm home that weekend maybe I can con Ron and Jimmie into coming up with me. I got a third scale cub and my new 100" Taylorcraft I've yet to fly cause the weather has been crap when I'm home.

We can't make Wilson this year cause of Ron's and my work schedule so we were thinking of going to Hamburg Saturday Sunday and Monday till noon or so. Depends on the weather. Maybe we'll see you there?

Have fun
Bob

Bob, I sure hope you can talk them into it. And as for Wilson, I had to pack that idea in for me too, work is busy, but we are doing the Hamburg trip this coming weekend. I was looking forward to Wilson, but there's always next year. Besides, the wife's new job doesn't allow her the vacation time like she was use too, when she had her own shop running it was a little easier to get away.

see you soon
Mark

I'll let Ron and the boys know you'll be in Hamburg. Should be a good time. Less stress than the jet events. For me anyway.
