Looking forward to it !!! Plan to spend full days on the flight line rather than retreating to the camper every other hour to cool off !!!!
Want to make this the 'Official Thread' for photos and jabbering up to, and including, the Great Event ? If we keep making a big deal about it, maybe some of our players who are on the fence about coming will be pushed to load up again!!!

What is this Fall SMALL you speak of?
Is this something I should look into?

Don't know if you're up to it dude.... You may have to mess with some of those cranky little engines that never run right even if you get them started !!!!

I'm on a roll now, two new 1/2A planes finished and a third on the table for Fall SMALL. Too hot to be outside, so this is building season.
I'll be shipping a sizeable fleet to Steve Staple for Fall SMALL and leaving those planes with him for SMALL in June. I'll retain a small fleet of duplicate birds here at home to enjoy in between events.
Kim-Glad to see you working on new stuff for Fall. Now, get Troy off the bike and back on the 1/2A horse.

Wowzers! All heck is breaking loose in the high desert! Carry on, sir!
As for me, the road beckons and I'm preparing to meet that siren call...

WINTER S.M.A.L.L. with Tony's Planes !!!!!! Come January, me and Steve will be flying Tony's cool little flying machines !!!!!!
------------Now, get Troy off the bike and back on the 1/2A horse. :lol--------
While not on Troy's level, I DO know the feeling of, "I got to get outta here for a while!!"
Good thing is that he will probably return, renewed, recharged, and making the balsa dust fly!!!!
Meanwhile, secret work on Secret Projects continues on the Hill....

We can add Winter SMALL to the schedule.
I like your mystery plane, my friend! I have a few and plan to bring one. The suspense may bring a few more interested pilots.

Just a bump/reminder that "Fall S.M.A.L.L." is bearing down on us like a bunch of high-pitched, castor slinging little monsters!
I have it on good authority that Tony has already shipped his micro fleet to a secret location near Little Rock, while I am in the "How Should I Pack All This Stuff?" mode.
Looks like our buddy Troy (Drone Killer) will have to pass on this one due to family situations, and we surely will miss him, and hope the best for him and his Crew.
I'm shooting for an arrival at Sky Tiger Field Tuesday afternoon, October 9th, after a hopefully successful recovery from the "International Worldwide Ringmaster Fly-a-Thon" at Breezy Hill the previous Saturday and Sunday.
If you are somewhere near Little Rock, come on out for a great time with a bunch of kids, and a few of their offspring too!
Hopefully with more of this:
And none of this:
So. it's coming time to fill the sky with nitro racket and castor mist!

I have arrived! Rolled in yesterday around 5, got things mostly set up, had supper with Tony, and came back to hit the sack...serenaded by Tornado Sirens and an interested coyote who tuned up over in the woods!
Tony and Steve are working to get some fuel and some other stuff lined up. There WILL be "Field Reports"!!!!

OH YEAH!. Love the "1st Flight". Have not seen one of those battery powered flyers in years! I had a red one, way back in the early years. Too Cool. Weather looks like you should get lots of outdoor activities in with out getting wet or stuck in the mud? Patiently waiting for daily field reports!

I am digging the "first flight" plane, also! That brings back some great memories! I got one of those for Christmas WAY long ago when I was a little boy. I loved that thing!

Awesome First Fight!!!
Fun times at Fall SMALL aka "1/2A Heaven" with Kim and friends!
This afternoon, I flew my 1/2A planes and the conditions were perfect. The field is in great shape and the mosquitoes disappeared with the cooler air and light wind. Temps were in the 70's and down to 69 degree for a high tomorrow.
A quick shout out to my friend Fitz Walker for getting his 1/2A fuel to Little Rock so quick. I used his Rocket 24 fuel today and it ran perfect. Awesome fuel! Please visit Fitz Fuels and support this great product and good guy in our hobby:
