OK gang, this Saturday's i39, Richmond, Madison Kickoff Flyin in ON!!!!! Remember, if you fly in there will be no ambulances, firetrucks or emergency personnel on site........there, that out of the way.
The weather is calling for 60 degrees on the backside of a nice Friday high with a slight chance of light rain developing after dark Sat. continuing into Sunday coming from the southwest. The call is made, it is ON. Saturday we will have coffee, donuts, Hooters wings, hotdogs, colas, water ........................and..............new this year...............a client is showing up with his mobile corn roaster!! Starting time is light 30 with closing at dark 30. Bring your camera and best lies, you will need the best of both. No vendors, no $3 hotdogs, no forums, no nothing, just airplanes and friends. We again have members of TeamRV and the Ohio Valley RVatiors formation teams flying in with lots of individual RVs. Be careful, this is an uncontrolled airfield with no NOTAMS, no nothing, safety is up to you. Keep your head on a swivel and use the radio. You know the drills. Looking forward to seeing everyone nice and early. 60 degrees and sunshine.....YES!!

List-Post: krnet@list.krnet.org Date: Thu, 01 Feb 2007 08:01:12 -0500 --> RV-List message posted by: "Dana Overall" <bo12...@hotmail.com> It's FLYIN TIME!!!!! Time to crank em up and point the spinners, or grills, towards the central US, just south of Lexington KY!! The 4th. annual Richmond, Madison Flyin is sch. for Feb. 24th. (last Saturday in February). Since this if now th 4th., many people have said it needs a name..............thus "The Kickoff". We have had as many as 86+ RV's here and over 100 total airplanes in the past couple years. Now this is not a vendors, forum flyin. We stand around, walk around scratching out behinds, telling lies and looking at RVs, while visiting old friends. Course I have already lined up two Hooters girls to be present to serve a variety of Hooters Hot Wings. The local EAA will also be there serving other grilled foods.......................NO $3.00 hot dogs. Course why in the world you want a hot dog when you could be served hot wings by the Hooter Girls.........got me:-) Be extremely careful, as there are typically a lot of airplanes operating in uncontrolled airspace. Keep your head on a swivel as you will hear, "flight of two on 45 degree entry", "flight of three with flight of two in sight", "experimental on short final". No fire trucks to respond slowly will be present. With that said, we have a great time. Keep in mind, this is "organized" by Elaine and I along with my youngest son and his best friend who direct you at the taxiway to the ramp or taxiway. That is truly it, no committees, no discussion sessions, we are it, so be patient and understanding. I am lining up a variety of door prizes. In the past I have been able to give away total AnyWhere Map software, tools from Cleveland and Avery, canopy covers, Kitlog, post lights......the list goes on. If any vendors are out there and want to donate, please send me an email. I'll start posting contributors shortly. I have had pilots fly in from PN, FL, MP, MI and all points in between. We have had people actually drive in from Michigan to see RV's. We fly and lie here so fly em or drive em, we have a good time:-) Start time Light 30, quiting time Dark 30. More to follow. Cell 859 625-2844, home 859 369-7582 Direction for driving to the airport, (lots of people are driving in) Off I-75, take exit 77 (KY route 595) and turn west. Go about 200 yards and make a right between the BP Station and the Shell Station. Go exactly 2.0 miles and make a right onto Madison County Airport Road. The airport road will take you directly to my hangar (Matter of fact someone kept going straight once and drove into the hangar, pushing the 172 out the back thus requiring the subsequent purchase of the Bonanza thats a different story). Anyone wanting to stay over close to the airport, there is a Holiday Inn Express behind the BP and a Days Inn (I think thats it) at the exit ramp. The airport is about 15 miles from my house/shop. Here is a list of the better motels within 10 minutes of my house/shop.
