Default We plan to make it and have registered...

from Sequin, Texas, as we did last year, in N261RM. we were the only RV9 on the field for most of the fly-in, tho one other did visit briefly on Saturday. Will hope to see a chum from Alabama in his RV3 this year, too, to check the RV3 category box. Don Olandese, Sequin, TX

Yup,... you and Bob were the only Dragging Wheel 9's but there were 8 Nose Dragger 9s on the field. Not sure where Buz was but maybe he'll come this year and you can have a 3'some 9'some Tail Dragging 9's are almost as rare as 3's and 14's

Here is what folks flew in last year.... 98 in total! We needed that 3 to fill out the card :

Default 2015 Registration Count

UPDATE: 8/7/2015 Registration opened Monday and we now have 75 airplanes registered with RV8s leading the pack....what's that all about....7a's ruled last year I'm told the A means Advanced Military Gear



70 are RVs and 5 are wanna be RVs or RVs on the way About 1/3 camping and 2/3 staying at the RCC. I understand there are a few rooms left but plenty of campground!

It's promising to be a big year on the PJ RV Mountain

Default We'll be there!

Cindy really looks forward to Petit Jean!

My hat is off to the Hot Springs and North Little Rock EAA chapters that make this event so wonderful!

See you there!

I plan on flying up for the day just for fun (my better half will not be able to make it this year). I typically have done prop balancing while there but this time I've had a request to do a transponder (VFR) check. If you would be interested in having your xpdr certified please shoot me an email as I'm still not sure if I want to drag the equipment up there unless there are a few folks that would like it done.

Hey Walt, I say take this year off from work and just enjoy your day there. I have seen you working your tail off in the past. You deserve a day of just relaxing this year.
