Newmans' is 4N0, 9.6 miles from the AZO VOR, on the 316 Radial.
Hope to see you there.

LARRY
WHAT TIME ARE YOU LEAVING FOR 4N0?
ARE DEPARTING GRR?
WANNA FLIGHT OF TWO?
I BRING MY CAMERA

WebMaster · #5 08-09-03, 09:18 AM

I'll coordinate later this week, but I'm guessing 11AM from GRR. I originally said 10, but 11 makes more sense.
That'll put us into 4N0 at 11:30, just in time for lunch.

MICHIGAN FLY IN'S HAVE BEEN GREAT.
ME AND THE 337 HAVE ATTENDED 8 FLY IN'S SO FAR THIS YEAR.
9 WITH OSHKOSH.
BUT THIS STATE REALLY OFFERS SOME VARIETY OF PANCAKE BREAKFASTS, LUNCH, AND STEAK COOK OUTS. IT HAS BEEN A REAL TREAT FOR THE FAMILY TO BE INVOLVED THIS YEAR WITH SUCH GREAT OUTINGS.

LARRY AND I PARTICIPATED IN ONE LAST SATURDAY AT NEWMAN'S FIELD. BESIDES FLYING FORMATION FROM GRR DOWN AS A FLIGHT OF 2 WITH ME IN THE LEAD, ON LANDING JUST AFTER I CLEARED THE ACTIVE LARRY WAS ON SHORT FINAL (LESS THAN 1/4 MILE) A STEARMAN DECIDED TO DEPART. WELL OUR FLIGHT OF 2 JUST GOT SEPERATED AS LARRY DID AN IMMEDIATE EMERGENCY GO AROUND. THEN LARRY FOUND OUT THAT THE NICE GUY WITHOUT RADIO CONTACT AT A UNCONTROLLED AIRPORT ON THE DAY OF THE ANNUAL FLY IN, WAS GOING TO BE HIS NEIGHBOR. YOU SEE LARRY HAS PROPERTY ON THE FIELD THAT IN THE FUTURE WILL BE THE LOCATION OF HIS RESIDENCE. AFTER A DISCUSSION WITH THE BI-PLANE PILOT I THINK THE RELATIONSHIP MIGHT BE RESTORED. THEN AS LARRY WAS PERFORMING HIGH SPEED, LOW, FLY BY'S HE WAS CUT OFF BY A JET RANGER AND THEN WHEN HE LANDED AND JUST GOT TOUCHED DOWN A RYAN JUST ABOUT MOWED HIM OVER WITH A FLY BY. IT GOT REALLY WILD AND A LITTLE SCARY. YOU MISSED IT JERRY. BUT JUST BECAUSE I KNOW YOU WANTED TO BE THERE INSTEAD OF TEXAS HERE'S A COUPLE PICS OF THE FUN.

Here's Herb having fun at the local fly in

WebMaster · #10 08-27-03, 11:51 AM

Landing, kind of flat, a little lift for the nose

WebMaster · #11 08-27-03, 11:52 AM

Talk about traffic, after getting cut off, going around, I get on the ground and someone is taxing in front of me

WebMaster · #12 08-27-03, 12:37 PM

At least I fly better than this guy

Larry:

Maybe that's just this pilot's version of buzzing the trees in the Bahamas.

Could be. Maybe he was trying to show the passengers his new home at the end of the runway.

HEY LARRY,
GLAD YOU LIKE THE PHOTOS
TOO BAD I COULD NOT GET THEM ON THE BOARD THE FIRST TIME
I THINK IT WAS WHEN WE WERE HAVING PROBLEMS WITH THE PROVIDER. I E-MAILED KEVIN TO ASK HIM WHY BUT HE MUST NOT HAVE EVER RECIEVED THE QUESTION BECAUSE OF THE PROBLEMS.

HOW DID YOU LIKE THE VIDEO? LET'S UPLOAD SOME OF THAT.

BTW, DID YOU SEE MY FLY-BY? WE GOT GET YOU A LITTLE LOWER.

KEVIN, CAN WE ATTACH VIDEO (QUICK TIME FILE)?
