I'm with Larry on this one :-)
(waiting patiently for my tobacco-like class action lawsuit settlement against *Big Fat* to show up any day now in the mail) I think what Larry is really saying g...don't serve chips and dip at your party - too much downside liability exposure. Big Liquor is next ....but Big Fat is now!! If a 17 year old pilot wants a beer, then that's a problem. We live in such wacky times that if someone crashed after staying at Jay's place, they might entertain litigation thoughts, based on the idea that they were unable to get a proper night's sleep, due in part by the fact that they had to sleep on (an alleged) lumpy mattress. What? I said *alleged*. -- Montblack (Larry Dighera wrote) Perhaps I'm overlooking something, but *publicly* providing intoxicating liquor to pilots en route to KOSH seem less than prudent to me. snip |

Hi Jay - I plan to make a cameo appearance, weather permitting.
How does one get to the hotel after landing at IOW? (Is it walking distance?) -- Ben C172 - N13258 @ 87Y "Jay Honeck" wrote in message news:%WaUa.144094$Ph3.18630@sccrnsc04... Our first annual "Pre-Oshkosh Fly-In Pool Party" starts at 3 PM Sunday here in Iowa City! We've now added poolside live music in addition to the "Lifter Technology" flight demonstrations. Come enjoy the beer, food, music, and camaraderie of hanging around with a bunch of crazy pilots en route to the Big One in OSH! -- Jay Honeck Iowa City, IA Pathfinder N56993 www.AlexisParkInn.com "Your Aviation Destination" |

"Larry Dighera" wrote in message news No. Hi, First post here, but gotta get this outta me . Sorry to say, but get a life, and go elsewhere with your talk. This is a get-to-gether, any person who drinks are responsible for thier actions, nobody else, have a look throught the FAA regs, find me a paragraph where it says I CAN'T DRINK BEER and have a party, and then later after some time, go elsewhere, get ****ed, wait a while do more flying. Are you just jealouse because YOU can't fly-in earlier ? Don't go bragging about, I don't give a *uck. Just stop your talking, get you ass in gear go do other things. There is ABSOLOUTLY nothing wrong with this party. Got IT ? Unhappy rec.aviation.piloting reader, Robert Kesik EPSC - Spotter. (Poland) |

I don't want to be a "wet blanket," but *publicly* providing liquor to pilots seems foolish to me. Very good point, Larry. However, the FAA has come up with a very good memnumon . . . newmoni . . .nmenmoni . . mnemonic! to help those of us who have trouble staying away from the bottle after flying . . , er, flying after the bottle. Okay, it may not even be a mmnnmneumonic but you get the idea. Everyone repeat after me: "Eight minutes from throttle to bottle." . . . Or was it eight hours . . . or was it from "bottle to throttle"? Speaking of that if you drink from a can instead of a bottle, do you add or subtract minutes/hours? I had considered driving my ass up to Osh detouring to Ioway and dropping in on your fools on the way. Problem is, three days ago I finally got a firm offer of my house that has been on the market for 2.5 years. I gotta be out in three weeks so I'll be packing instead of driving. If all goes as planned, I'll be flying up there in my own plane again within a year! . . . or two. Y'all have one for me, okay? -- Jim Fisher |

Hi Jay - I plan to make a cameo appearance, weather permitting.
How does one get to the hotel after landing at IOW? (Is it walking distance?) That's great, Ben! While we are within walking distance, just have the line guys at IOW give us a call. We'll come getcha! -- Jay Honeck Iowa City, IA Pathfinder N56993 www.AlexisParkInn.com "Your Aviation Destination" |

I thought it was no smoking within eight hours of flying and no drinking within 100 feet of the airplane. |
