Sure hope so! Will is no longer in Appleton, and he is usually the one to make reservations. I guess I can pick up the flag and run with it if no one else wants to since I am a stone's throw away.

So what night do we want to do it? When is the Van's banquet so we don't conflict?

I suggest we shoot for Tuesday night if it works with Van's. Get it in before folks start heading home by midweek.

Lets hear suggestions and a tentative list of who is planning to attend. Any cardiologists coming?? :wink:

Until I hear otherwise, we will shoot for Tuesday night, July 27th, for the Otter.

Here is a preliminary list of suspects, which will be updated from time to time:

Jeff Orear
Mike Orear
Eric Severson
Chad Jenson
The Chad Dad
Joe Ferraro
Brad Oliver
Jim Pappas (You're coming Pappas!)


Post on this thread if you are coming and I will add you to the list. I would like to have a head count by July 17th or so.

I am not sure on Osh this year. I have lots of things in the air that will most likely prevent it. I expect full pictures and stories though.

HIGH FIVE on that one, Brian! You betcha! Had a big moment this weekend... mounted the empennage on the fuse for the first time. Sure looks like an airplane! I'll have pics posted on my site soon.

Next year for me. Definitely. That's if you'll let a rag wing guy sit with you fast fliers.

It will be next year for me too. I'm retiring at the end of this year and saving all my vacation time to sell back to finance an engine. :)

Sorry to say that it is so.

That was a good meal... wish I could come back out and have another one!

I need to get my OSHA Trainer Re-Cert or it will expire. Anyone need an OSHA card?

Sorry I am gonna miss you guys. Have a good time without me.
