Hey Larry: I am a little concerned about the remains of HERMINE. I am considering heading for MVN tomorrow instead of Thursday. Do you think there will be any problem arriving early? Lynn In a message dated 8/23/2010 9:03:22 A.M. Eastern Daylight Time, les...@gmail.com writes:
Hello from the beautiful Midwest! I have some news from the Ercoupe National Convention coming up all too soon: 1. We have secured a Robinson R-22 helicopter for our Arch fly-by. If we get a minimum of 15 airplanes participating it will be about $30 per person for the photographs. We have decided to provide each participant with a CD with very high-quality digital images that they can then use to create whatever medium they desire. The images will be made with an 18 megapixel Canon camera. A signup sheet will be at the registration desk when you arrive. The arch is approximately 600 AGL, we will fly in front of it (with the city of St. Louis behind it) at 700 AGL, and the helicopter will be hovering to the east at 800 AGL. This should give us a good shot of each airplane with the arch behind, looking down. 2. Good news! I am ordering a few more T Shirts. 3. I'm struggling with a count for the banquet on Saturday night. It should be a lot of fun. If you intend to go and haven't registered yet, please send me a note letting me know that you are planning to be there. I don't anyone going hungry! 4. We are going to have FAA folks on hand to give you WINGS credits. There will be a signup sheet at registration. We are looking forward to a great event! Remember, the arch fly-by is on Friday morning, the picnic is Friday evening. Hope to see you all there! Larry N99340 ------------------------------------ Yahoo! Groups Links
