As long as the weather cooperates this is going to be a huge event. Tons of fun for sure. So practice but please don’t bend your plane. See you here.

Hey Phil,

I'm sorry I can't make this one. Hope to run into you sometime soon.

Here are links to Event Schedule pdfs.

Greg let's plan on fishing in the Fall if that works for you.

Bring it on, join the fun!

As of this morning, we’ve only had .25 (one quarter) of an inch of rain from this storm system. The runway is in great shape! Forecast is for great weather this weekend.

Please REFER AND ADHERE to the parking plan...we will be space limited and the entire operation revolves around your cooperation.

Beginning Friday, arrivals using Rwy 13 (grass) tune to 123.42. Left hand pattern, DO NOT cross the extended centerline of 17.

Rwy 17 is right pattern using unicom 122.8.

ALL aircraft, 122.9 upon landing for instructions.

BRING YOUR TIE-DOWNS.

I know the grass runway well, having camped there for a couple previous events. But I was curious, why does the day parking on the paved taxiway switch for a little bit? Conditions on the east edge are inconsistent or something?

That one section drops off and we don't want to run the risk of an airplane rolling backwards into a depression.

We cant wait! Will see you guys on Friday and look forward to seeing who wins the fishing trip!

Phil, sorry to say We are not going to be able to make it this year, Scratch the Broussard! Stuff happens, Hope to see you all next year!

That's a bummer. Was looking forward to having your Broussard compete in the first even Super Heavy Touring class. Hope all is well.

For those who haven’t been following our Facebook Page her are a couple of photos from Yesterday when we started setting things up. Looks like the weather is going to be fantastic this weekend.


Just imagine this full of big tire airplanes! It will start to fill today. Wow this is going to be epic.

You guys attending can feel free to start posting pics and videos anytime....... We are waiting patiently.

I got no idea how to post images with my phone, but I'm putting some on our Facebook page

Phil, get the TAPATALK APP!!!!

I admit our mobile compatability really needs some TLC. Tapatalk is certainly the path of least resistance if you don't mind uploading over and over, but I'm growing a little weary of some of their recent changes to the service.

Anyway, I justify uploaded and posted this pic with mobile Safari on my iPhone 6. It's not slick but it's exactly how you'd do it on your computer.

Hey, Phil,

A shout out to you and best wishes to you and your event. From the looks of what you've done so far, I won't be at all surprised to see this become one of the premier fly in events in the country.

Have fun and enjoy!
