Hey Blaine, I was just told that Joe Coker was planning on coming to the Big Bird Fly In. Should be a lot of fun.

For those of you who want to see some of the best flyers in the area - Prattville will be the place. September 13th and 20th are the last dates to get reserved rooms at our discount rate. Reserve your room now.

Hey Andy, how ya been? If your asking if the judging and trophy award will be held on Saturday or Sunday it'll happen on Sunday. We have planned a full day of flying on Sunday and the weather will be great. We'll do the judging earlier in the day on Sunday that way the guys that have a long drive home won't miss the awards.

Thanks for the info Bob! I'm doing good-this will be the first time in over a year I could get to Alabama to go fly with Granpop so I'm looking forward to it (is it still the inhouse rule to land and take cover when he takes off? HA HA) See ya Sunday!
