I am cleaning airplanes (Terry inspired me) and packing the van, it will be done by Saturday. I may have to show up on Wednesday. I am just so darn excited.
I only went to one Iowa huckfest, and really did have a good time. Watching all of those big gas planes for the first time was awesome. Seeing what happened at night was crazy fun (but we were exhausted)
I can't make it this year due to work (couldn't make it last year for the same reason) but if it is held in 2016, I'd like to go. Also, if I make any newb mistakes, please let me know! I don't have a ton of experience flying in large groups...Iowa was the most people we've flown with.
I expect we'll have more gas and fewer small electrics next time.
I will have to clean them after the trip but I'm hoping to drive part way on Thursday and get there to fly all day on Fri. The Viper is ready to Strike!
Hobby Haven has helped us out again by sponsoring us. Hobby Haven is in Des Moines Iowa and is one of the nicest shops I've been to and owned by one heck of a nice guy. Stop by your next time through Des Moines, it's only 5 minutes off the interstate.
Got some flights today to get the fingers warmed up. Last year going into Huckfest I had 20 gallons burned up already. This year between work, travels and crap weather barely 10 gallons. I'm bringing 7 gallons with me and want fumes left when we head home Sunday if all goes well
