OK, I've added Ken (2), Mark, Tracy (2), Richard, and one or two who
emailed me direct.
Richard, thanks & you're on the presenters list.
Mark, can you motivate your buddies out there in central TX? &
talk about your 3 rotor experiences?
Sorry to be a day late in responding; it took the power company over
20 hrs to get us back on line after the storm last night.
Thanks,
Charlie

Hi Charlie,
I will be there tent camping.
Can give a single rotor update covering some technical
issues, not necessarily rotary specific.

Engine Seminar @ Slobovia Outernational Airport
OK boys & girls, here's your official
invitation to our rotary/alternative engine seminar here
at Slobovia Outernational (2nd hosting of the Millennium
and the first this decade :-) ).
I'll be working up a cheat sheet with driving directions
for those who haven't visited in the past. For flying
info, just plug 'MS71' into Airnav's airport search
function. You can also find us using Google Maps.
For those who don't know, we live just north of Jackson
MS on highway 49 N at an airport community known as
Slobovia Outernational Airport. Slobovia is a private
('restricted' on the Memphis sectional) airport, so
typical 'land at your own risk' cautions apply. Most of
our bedrooms in the house are already spoken for by
'early adopters', but we have lots of floor space in the
den and hangar with air beds & air mattresses (bring
a bedroll & towel/wash cloth, if you can). You're
welcome to tent-camp or park your (earth-bound) RV in
the yard, or if you prefer, there's a private campground
with hookups about 2 miles away. Hotels are about 20
minutes away in Madison, Ridgeland, and Jackson. Feel
free to call (1:00PM-9:00 PM if calling on a weekday) or
email for more info on hotels, etc.
If you're
willing to do a presentation, *please* give me a call or
drop me a line. We all love to get together for
fun/fellowship, but we also want to soak up as much new
info as possible when we get together. I'll have a sound
system, computer, video projector and overhead projector
available for presentations.
Tentative schedule is arrivals any time on Friday Sept.
28 (Thursday's fine if weather dictates) with supper at
a local restaurant, presentations/discussions/plane
rides on Saturday with meals here at the airport, and
supper Saturday night an another local restaurant.
Sunday we'll keep open for discussions, rides, etc, and
departures, for those who must go home (or want to party
elsewhere).
After
getting your collective 'ok' to open it up for all
alternative engines, I spoke with Patrick Panzera from
Contact Magazine about promoting it, & he thought we
might get up to 200 people if he promoted it as such in
the mag. Since it's just my wife & I managing the
logistics, that would be more than we could handle. So,
I'm sending the 1st invitation to the rotary list. If
there's still some capacity left after your RSVP's, I'll
let Patrick promote it through his magazine with an open
invitation to all alternative engine groups.
Looking forward to seeing y'all in September,
Charlie & Tupper
