NEFI 2017!!!

[RCjetdude]

Pilot Ryan getting ready to wring out the newest Spitty... It is truly a gorgeous plane and flies very well.

I would like to add my own shot of the Hawg line-up. I had such a good time at NEFI. It was so laid back and I just enjoyed flying and meeting new friends. I got to fly with Captain Mike and Pilot Ryan, Warbird Charlie, Mr. Grossman, Boots Whirlygig and others. Looking forward to next year.

I love the canopy up RCjetdude. That is beautiful. All those hogs lined up to feed.

Well, we made good time today and are now in Waco, Nebraska, beautiful, simply beautiful. I was expecting more of a desert type terrain instead of these rolling green hills, give me a home where the buffalo roam......
Cheyenne was great, but it was Sunday so most things were closed unfortunately, we toured the one museum in the old railroad terminal which was great. Anyone who is a Hell on Wheels fan can relate to Cheyenne's history and the railroads history in general. Kind of sad to think that passenger trains are now pretty well a thing of the past, would still be a great way to see this country, beats 30,000 feet.
So, a quick stop here and then we're off to Davenport Iowa tomorrow. Each stretch is about 400 miles so, we leave around 6:00 to 6:30 and arrive somewhere around 2:00 PM.
Two days til Nefi!! CB should be kicking off the party bey arriving tomorrow afternoon and holding all the campsites for ransom;) and we'll be there sometime Wednesday afternoon.

Can't wait!!

Grossman56 and Mrs Grossman, on the road to Nefi

Yes and I'm still MAD they did not finish the series (Hell On Wheels). Or did they as I haven't checked in awhile?

[Grossman56]

Here's a shot of the tents. This type of 'tent' but a fair amount of them
and here's the one we have to duplicate this year with everyone in it once again.

[Grossman56]

CB's there by now and about ready to break in the field for us! First flight at Nefi 2017, gentlemen, start your engines!!

Getting ready to load the van. Here is my transport rig. They get to ride in air conditioned comfort with me. :) Renting a trailer tomorrow.





And here they are in the van nice & comfy.

[Grossman56]

You bet, one way or another you'll come away a wiser, more experienced pilot, nothing like hanging with the boys real time!! Off bright and early tomorrow, should be there by 1400.
Now, as stated before, I'm not sure if there is any wifi connection, but if not, as soon as I get connected, I'll post a bunch of pic's so you all can wish you could have been there!
Just like last year !:Angry:
So, stay tuned:pop

[Grossman56]

yes, there are big tents and a lot of us bring ours as well, don't worry, we'll fit you in;)
Heard from OV-10 while on the road this morning and he's on his way, should be getting there pretty soon. (Wednesday) We're currently in Davenport Iowa at the Interstate Campgrounds, we'll be pushing off around 6:30 tomorrow for Muncie, hoping to arrive around 1400.
So let the fun begin my friends. And it would kind of suck if I've driven 1300+ miles to sample some of Indiana's poorest weather!! It's been up in the high 80's low 90's all day, we have the A/C on in the trailer,so nice!!

Is there a covered facility?

Yes there is. You can see in this video from last year, they setup quite a bit of canopy area.

[Boots Whirlygig]

I lived in Indiana for 18 years so like many places wait a few minutes and the weather will change.
