Thanks Brett!
Meeting went great, turbine demo was awesome, indoor venue is great.
Ok guys, here is how the event is schedualed at this time. Every thing is subject to change as needed.
Camping on the field is OK Friday, and Saturday. No open flames. If you
have a genorator, bring it. Electricity from the building will be used
for the vendors, and sound system. Adult beverages are OK, but only
after your done flying for the night, and keep it within reason, don't
let it get out of hand.
Friday, and Sunday will be open flying, and night flying on Friday.
Saturday will be the main day. All raffles will be given out on Saturday.
9am Pilots meeting, welcome, and acknowledgements by Wes, Safty procedures by Larry, and Schedual of events by me.

5:30-12 Midnight Open flying, and Night flying
5:45 Caravan leaves for the indoor flying at a school gym about 8 miles
away. Those who choose not to fly indoor, it's just open flying.
9:15 leave the indoor flying, and back to the field for some night flying.
We will stop all flying at midnight. Some people my be trying to sleep.
Special notes: 1) any one pilot, or group of pilots who want a 10-15
minute of open air space to fly unubstructed durring open flying
times,(ie. Turbine jets, Helicopters, 3D, combat, war birds) should
notify Wes, or Brett, 30 minutes prior to the time you want to fly. We
will make a window for you to fly. Be ready when called.
2) All pilots will have a spoter next to them on the flight line when flying
3) If you are ask to land at any time, you will land as soon as safely
possible. This is still a working airport, but we don't expect more than
a handful of planes all weekend.
4) All pilots will be given a wrist band that must be worn. This is to
prove proof of registration, and payment of landing fee. We had more
than a few pilots who did not pay last year. This is a fund raiser for
MS, so we need this $10 landing fee, and all of the raffle tickets you
can buy.
5) Raffle tickets can be purchased all day, untill the last item is gone.
6) for those pilots with large planes that have to have trailers to haul
them, you will be allowed to park on the flight line in a designated
spot. we have room for about twenty trailers. All other pilots will need
to unload thier planes, and have all vehicles off the flight line, by
9:45am. Pop-up type shades are OK. Please share your shade with those
who do not have thier own.
That's it, it's going to be a great event.
If there are any questions, please ask.
Thank you for your support of the ODB event, and MS!

Landing fee is $10.00 and may be paid with check or Postal Money order. And of course cash at the fly in is fine as always.
When you check in be sure to present your radios and airplanes at check in. All 72Mhz radios will remain in the impound until you are ready to fly or need to adjust.
2.4 GHZ radios do not need to be impounded. But we need to know about them!
Airplanes will be inspected to be sure they are safe to fly. And besides we like to look at them too!
Be sure to sign the liability release form when you check in. This would be a great time to buy your raffle tickets,T shirts etc!
