Paul & the rest of you rotorheads out there,

We are having an EAA flyin/cookout here at Slobovia Outernational
Airport, just north of Jackson MS on Saturday, July 12. We have a 4800 X
80 foot grass runway, with ~3000' lighted, so almost any plane should be
able to land here.

You are all invited to the flyin. Since Herb was unable to host his
RotorMotor gathering this spring,  I would like to propose that we have
a 'substitute RotorMotor' weekend in conjunction with the flyin. We have
a couple of beds, lots of floor space for sleeping bags, & acres & acres
of grass for tents.

Tracy has indicated that he will try to attend, so we should have at
least one flying example for those who haven't seen a rotary fly yet.
 Herb Sanders has donated a 12A to the cause of education, so we can do
a 'group teardown' to see just how easy the rotary is to work on.  Lunch
Saturday will be BBQ pork, burgers, hotdogs, etc & the rest of the time
we can hit one of the nearby restaurants, order pizza, etc.

What's the collective opinion about this proposal?

Good idea Charlie. I always thought your place was an ideal site. Folks, this
will be a very pleasant time. Good camping too.
Here are a few pics.
