Anyone out there? > Anyone out there? Yep. But not much shake'n. I hear the West Port, Oklahoma fly-inn has been scheduled for the fall this year. >> Anyone out there? > > Yep.

It is the only one in the mid-west that we are covering for the magazine this year. We will be presenting a forum at the Golden West show addressing the things we learned about anodizing and aluminum structures. The Utah Fly-In is still on our list, but we have cancelled our appearance at the Freedom Fly-In at Mirage Dry Lake. The @#$% BLM has fenced in the lake and is charging $15/ car for us to use public land. We are boycotting their (Public land BS) facility. Bad News, A Safari helicopter crashed near Phoenix with two on board. Fatal for both. This helicopter and crew graced the cover of our magazine in Sept 2008. Details and probable cause TBD. >>> Anyone out there? >> [quoted text clipped - 15 lines] > Fatal for both. This helicopter and crew graced the cover of our magazine > in Sept 2008.

Yeah we knew both people involved and had attended several airshows where they showed their ship. The cause is TBD. I'm sure that the FAA and NTSB will look into it to a certain level.

I'd been meaning to ask you about that Stu. That was the Baby Belle right? Tragic. >>Yeah we knew both people involved and had attended several airshows where >>they showed their ship.

Hello Kevin: That was the white Safari out of Phoenix with both Mike and Donna on board. Both of them were employees of the Phoenix police department and based on communication received from their co-workers were well liked. They will certainly be missed by us here at the magazine as well. We had shared time with them at several fly-ins. Stu Stu Fields opined >Anyone out there? no -ash Cthulhu in 2008! Vote the greater evil. |
