Some custom work on the A-10 80mm for NEFI. Iowa A-10!!

[RCjetdude]

That's a sharp looking fleet there...

Taxiing out to the Nefi flight line.

Getting ready for dismantling to build the airplane stand.

Ben,
You've been bustin your hump at those ship yards in Virginia for quite a while so before you start the new job I think you need a short respite to enjoy your hobby.
I know of a great place for that ;) :)

Ok, I am home now but I took a new job down in Corpus Christi TX. Right now they got me reporting on the 19th of June. Probably can not make it to NEFI, but, if it gets bumped back a few days then yeah I am in again.

[Sky Wolf]

I'm going to arrive at NEFI shortly after noon on the 16th. Just about done and ready to fly the new A-10...hmm, the Hog adds a little twist to how i'm going to load planes...

Lon, can't wait to see some of your onboard videos from the A-10!

Have fun at NEFI!

[Grossman56]

I'd like to be able to do a running report on Nefi to the Squawkers out there, but not sure if there's any internet connection there, we'll see. If not, I'll do the same as I did last year and post all the pictures we take after we get back. Don't feel shy about copying any that you want to keep !!

Pushing off next Saturday, hoping to arrive Wednesday (14th) afternoon, can't wait !!
The only thing better than getting a new plane is getting to fly new planes with my online buds!!

"Sir", that was my Dad!
We're just plotting out the plane hangar aka the box of the truck and will start building tomorrow The telemetry module and a 5000 6s are somewhere out there and should hopefully arrive next week.
Six birds for me which is going to be awesome, some from every era of my flying, all special birds to me.

Excellent! The momentum is building...

Yes sir! I mean CB. ;)

[OV10]

I am feeling the same way. I will be there later in the day on the 15th. Looking forward to meeting you sir.

Now that TI has ID'd you Steve, I'll know who you are when I see ya and am looking forward to that meet also. Just don't call me sir LOLFlyin buds call me Warbird or CB ;)

I'm trying to whittle the list down to the top 12 and not sure where the Aunt JU is yet in the running.
UPS says the hog arrives tomorrow......it damn well better is all I got to say.
Spent the day doing a final systems check on the Hangar-Bunkhouse, the Yamaha inverter generator that I got last week is awesome.
Got to get the two racks(4 birds on each) installed tomorrow for a total of ten in the Hangar (PBJ on kitchen floor and a HOG on the bed) and two on the trucks flight deck
I am so stoked about this year cause I won't miss any evening flying cause I won't have to leave to go back to the flop house hotel.
Talked with Jay today and he has no issue with me arriving a couple days early.
It looks like I am planning on making the 600 mile hump west on the 13th arriving around 8pm and leaving the morning of the 20th.
I got to spend a little more time in the museum this year since I won't be so rushed for time.
Did I say I was stoked:Drooling::)LOL

OV- you're making me so jealous brother! I've gotta make contact with you guys somehow while you're there.

[OV10]

Good news CB, the count down here has begun, six more working days until we head out!!

Can't wait to see you all again. And can't wait to see all the new birds, I didn't own three of them that I'm bringing last year, that was back when the Bearcat was a dream, how things have changed.
Are you bringing the JU 52 ? How unique is that??
BTW, do you guys have 'hog in hand' yet??
