How about the "rec.aviation.owners". THat works for me.
I'll make some quiet inquiries on Monday. Jim Hmm. The "rec.aviation club" works for me. Or do we need something more official sounding? |

I'll make some quiet inquiries on Monday. Thanks, Jim. Wow, just imagine. We could store our own MOAG (Mother Of All Grills) "on-site", and we could have a pig roast every year! Not to mention all the chairs, tables, and (dare I say it) coolers? No more hauling around the PMC -- "Pimp My Cooler", AKA: "The Coffin"?? Wow, I can almost see Jim (Burns) and Montblack pumping their fists and shouting "YES!" from here! :-) -- Jay Honeck Iowa City, IA Pathfinder N56993 www.AlexisParkInn.com "Your Aviation Destination" |

Paul could make a few special trips to OSH, meet Jim, store PMC units, etc. Ooooooooooooh, our own MOAG...now this is getting exciting. All we need to do is convince someone (JimB/Paul, perhaps even Joe the grill master) to rotate nightly shifts running the grill and we're set. No more having to run from the Charcoal Pit through the wall of water! :-) -- Jack Allison PP-ASEL-IA Student Arrow N2104T "When once you have tasted flight, you will forever walk the Earth with your eyes turned skyward, for there you have been, and there you will always long to return" - Leonardo Da Vinci (Remove the obvious from address to reply via e-mail) |

"Mach Schnell....schnell, schnell." Crap, I suppose you're right. We'll STILL have to transport the stuff out to the campsite, somehow. Wait -- a TRAILER! That's what we need! Keep all the supplies in a trailer, inside the storage facility, throughout the year. Then, when you come to OSH next year, you simply hook it up to your van (which you have somehow magically transported onto the grounds, and driven right up to the Exhibit halls without anyone noticing) and drive it out to the North 40 -- where we won't have arrived yet! You will then have to predict precisely where we will be camping, and drop the load right *there*... Okay, maybe there are some holes in the plan here...but we'll fill 'em somehow! :-) -- Jay Honeck Iowa City, IA Pathfinder N56993 www.AlexisParkInn.com "Your Aviation Destination" |

Although y'all 're nuts or drunk, I like the trailer idea. Of course you'd
have it painted with the Alexis Hotel and Suites Traveling Road Show logo on it. And I think that the PMC would be housed inside the trailer, would have to take on a new life form, something like one of those little refrigerators or a tank and ice that would hold say... um... a 1/4 barrel?? CO2 system or a compressor run off the generator. Soda, water, and beer taps would extend out the side of the trailer in several locations so there would be no waiting for service. We could have a restaurant sized fold out gas grill and griddle on the side of the trailer. Every morning the North 40 could wake up to the smell of pancakes, bacon, and eggs. Each night a laptop w/DVD and a LCD projector would project the day's pictures and airplane movies onto a roll down screen. A roll out awning with roll down sides would make a temporary tent for those unable to navigate homeward. A couple orange rotating lights would make you look "official". Build it and they will come! Think big Jay! I've got room to store it and I'd even drive over to OSH the day before and pick you up so we can get it tranported to your site, then after OSH I could pull it home. The gate Nazi's be damned! Jim "Jay Honeck" wrote in message oups.com... No more hauling around the PMC -- "Pimp My Cooler", AKA: "The Coffin"??

Clearly you have lost your mind, Jim. Let's do it! :-) I've got room to store it and I'd even drive over to OSH the day before and pick you up so we can get it tranported to your site, then after OSH I could pull it home. The gate Nazi's be damned! Um, well, hold on there, pardner. I don't know about the gate Nazis letting us pull (and keep) a trailer onto the North 40 for a week -- especially not one with beer tappers and grills sticking out the sides! Jim Weir, are you reading this? Montblack is good, and smooth as refried beans when it comes to getting his van out to our campsite -- but whaddya think the EAA folks would say about such a contraption? -- Jay Honeck Iowa City, IA Pathfinder N56993 www.AlexisParkInn.com "Your Aviation Destination" |
