    Just a BIG power transmission tower about a 3/4 mile away from flight line.
    All I avoid is the NEFI Triangle about a 1/4 mile NE of the flight line. :Scared::Silly:

      Ok.........the USS Ecoboost is loaded and the BWA rolling hanger/bunkhouse have received the selected NEFI 2018 warbird entries.
      Now you can make the appropriate adjustments George...........:PLOL

                I've got 19 planes (mostly jets) loaded, Steve's trailer hooked to the Bomber RV...all that's left is to load my battery boxes and radios. I'm also taking my projector and a bunch of good airplane movies.

                      On the road to Nefi!!
                      Well, here we are in beautiful Waco, Nebraska and its...........raining!!
                      They've been waiting for rain for a while now and the folks from Cody did not disappoint!
                      It was raining and thunder and lightning in Cheyenne last night for a bit, but let up, for the most part it was cooler driving here.
                      Got the trailer set up and on with the bathing suit and into the pool!!
                      AHHHH!
                      So it's off to Davenport tomorrow then on to Muncie, lets hope that the weather gets better the more Easterly we get.
                      Maybe Mark or Tom could show, that'd would be awesome!

                      Looking forward to seeing the gang there, hopefully late afternoon on Thursday, everything going as well as it has.

                      Grossman on the road to Nefi!!

                                  I should get there noonish Friday. Have my motel reservations Fri & Sat nights. I’ll be mostly a bystander, only bringing a couple planes and really haven’t flown since last NEFI. Just got a Mobius but haven’t hooked it to a computer. Do you have to hook it to a computer first or is it ready to go? Will a 64 mb micro/sd work in it?

                                        I am not sure on the Mobius. I just recently got a Runcam2. It involved a little setting up to get it to connect to my phone wirelessly. I have a 32 gb card in it. Good for plenty of HD video.

                                          I have a Google Pixel 2 XL on Project fi service and at Joe Nall the signal was fine for me but sucked for George who was on Verizon.
