OK folks , we have less than 2 weeks til the Sedona 2016 Fly In . I need a fairly accurate AC and body count to finalize the deal . Body count especially so my wife Sil can make restaurant reservations for Friday and Saturday nite . This year we will parking the (2) RV Command Posts inside the fence by our tie down area . Long range WX forecast looks good . Thank you for your support and "Stay Thirsty My Friends !" If you have ANY questions please email me or call me at home .

I plan to arrive Friday around noon w/ 'Feisty'. Marilyn is having cataract surgery this Thursday, so we'll ask the doctor if she can fly above 10,000 ft as she recovers.

RICH; LOOKS LIKE I WON'T HAVE MY BIRD BACK TOGETHER TO FLY, BUT OUR ANNIVERSARY IS THE 19TH AND MY BRIDE HAS NOT FLOWN IN THE BIRD YET, SO PLANNING TO DRIVE TO SEDONA. ADDED ELECTRIC FLAPS TO MINE AND THE 2" STROKE ON THE FRIGELLI ONLY GAVE ME 19 DEGREES OF FLAP, SO HAVE MADE AN ADAPTOR THAT LETS ME GET 31 DEGREES. JUS NEED TO GET THE RIVETING DONE ON THE OTHER BRACKET AND WIRES RAN TO THE WHICH AND WILL BE GOOD TO GO. HOPE TO SEE YOU ALL THERE.

My wife and I are planning on arriving on Friday morning, after a long flight from Mesa.

I'm looking forward to meeting everyone in person!

I'm hoping to fly in company with as many as 3 other T-18s. I just went to SkyVector.com to do some preliminary flight planning.
Looks like two possible routes; the coastal route or the Elko route?
Anyway, Marilyn's eye surgery seems to have gone well today, so plan on both of us.

Well...most folks arriving Friday . Flights in the local area on Friday are up to individual pilots. Chow on Friday at 1800 hours (L) . Evening at your own risk . Saturday morning (hopefully NLT than 0900) possible flights to the Winslow crater/Grand Canyon...WX permitting (before the winds pick up) . Dinner bell at 1800 hours (L) . Rest of the evening is up to you , but do not have the Sheriff call me about bail . Sunday get up , eat , fly out on your own time schedule . I will have a printed POD at the RV Command Post . If you want to do any of the local Jeep tours have at it ! I am still recovering from the 3 hour rock and roll , bruise my kidneys tour last year of the "RED Rocks." That is all for now .

RB

Fraser, and anyone else that is arriving Thursday, if you want some company let us know and we will drive up. We are in Camp Verde and will see if Howard and Elaine want to ride with us.
