So...we gettin' together at the Otter this year???

I wish. but maybe next year for me

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??

I'm hoping but need to see if OSH will even be an option this year.

I hope so...

Tuesday works for me! Me and my dad will be there...since Brad doesn't check on here much, he will be with us...Joe can speak for himself, but he's in too...

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.

sure wish I could come!!!!

You can come Brian...we can make an exception this time! JK...not gonna make it to the show this year???

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.

Me, too! I've never been to Osh. Probably won't have the chance until I can fly there someday.

Bruce get that plane done, we can meet up and fly out together.

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.

we'll give you a head start.

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.

Thanks Painless for steering the "Steer" committee.


I offer the following reminder for those on the fence and to entice those who have not joined us in the past...








"Queen Cut"



(As if we needed a reminder)

Hope to see old friends and make new ones.

I am gonna try to make it this year, but it depends on harvest. I hope to be there, just not sure on the days. I think I could be there in 3 hours in the 8 (432 NM)

Mmmmmm...

That appetizer looks tasty!

Sorry I am gonna miss it this year guys!

Say it ain't so CJ!!

You're probably still digesting that side of beef you ate last year anyway.....

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.
