Subject: [FlyRotary] Who's in? Rotary Roundup/Alt
Engine gathering
Hi y'all,
We have a tentative date for our next alt engine gathering.
We're
looking at Memorial Day weekend, May 26-28. Arrivals any time
Friday,
and departures Sunday or Monday, as weather permits.
For new members, we're on the field at Slobovia Outernational
Airport
(MS71), just north of Jackson MS. It's a 4800' grass strip in
great
condition. I understand that it probably won't work for
Vari-Eze's, but
we've had just about everything else, from SX300's to
Velocity's, to
King Airs, to Mitsubishi MU-2's, to the Blockbuster (remember
them?)
Blimp land here. Oh, and Cubs, RV-x's, etc, as well. So unless
you're
flying something direct from the drawing board of Rutan
himself, you can
probably land here. And if you can't, there's a paved
municipal airport
~10 miles south (KHKS).
You can camp on the field or in the hangar, and we may have
limited
space in the house for a bedroll, if you can bring one.
There's a public
campground about 5 minutes away, and hotels are ~20-25 minutes
away by car.
If you have an update on your project you'd like to share, or
something
new you've discovered, *please* contact me off list; we would
love to
have some presentations. Doesn't have to be rotary related;
just good
clean aircraft fun.
OK; down to business. I know that several of you have already
said that
you can be here. If there's a chance you'll be able to attend,
please
let me know within the next few days. Reason is two-fold.
First, we need
to know if there's enough interest to have the event on this
weekend,
and second, a rough head count so we can start preparations
(food, etc).
So if you're interested, and there's at least a reasonable
chance you
can attend, please let me know. You can reply via this list,
or you can
email me directly at
ceengland7@gmail.com, or call at
601-879-9596.
Thanks, and hoping to see a lot of y'all on May 26.
