RE: ^^^^^WEST TEXAS WARBIRDS 2010^^^^^
West Texas Warbirds Bound is the cry from the Yellow Shirts of the Oklahoma Sooner Squadron. We are ready for some flying! Make sure you keep the fans turned down to a nice breeze! Sharon and I will be leading the way in our convoy from the north. Corsair is getting it's final tweeks and will be attending this year. Last year was a lot of fun and hope more warbird pilots attend. We will see you soon! Bill

RE: WARBIRDS OVER OKLAHOMA 2010
The big Corsair is coming right along. I mounted the big Moki 250cc radial today. The cockpit components are completed and will install after the aircraft is painted. I have some photos of the fuse with engine and cowling in place. Additionally, I have a few shots of the cockpit with the floor, instrument panel, right and left side panels, and pilot seat in place. There is still a lot of cockpit interior to finish it out that is missing in these pics. My next step is to install the canopy rails. I'll provide more photos of the project as it rapidly nears completion.

Big Beautiful Doll to make appearance at Warbirds Over Oklahoma 2010. Seen here in a photo pass at the Ponca City Airport. Wow..this is actually my Top Flite ARF 1/5th scale Mustang powered with a DA-50. This photo was taken by Tom Auerbach from the Ponca City EAA chapter. He is an avid aviator and does a great job with his camera. He posted this photo on AVwebb.com. The Doll has a full scale cockpit from Dynamic Balsa. Really adds to the plane.

RE: WARBIRDS OVER OKLAHOMA 2010
Ed, There will lots of open flying time. This event is for the pilots. Our team philosophy is that the pilots attending this event are "THE SHOW". We all have attended meets where you sit and watch a lot due to all of the flight demos and know this is not fun. The Dawn Patrol WWI is an open flying event that starts Saturday morning with the first light of dawn. Anyone who wants to join these early birds to fly is welcome. The Dawn Patrol squadrons have really increased in size thanks to all of the great WWI kits and ARFs out now, especially since the movie Flyboys was released. We will have some noon time demos and a chance for the spectators to see all of the aircraft. The full scale fly-bys will take just a few minutes and is well worth the drive to see the Miss America up close and hear that Merlin engine roar. The Friday evening events are after all the flight lines are closed. We'll have a schedule of events to post in early 2010. The flying site allows the pilots to face the west which allows us to start flying very early without issues with the sun. Our goal is to make this event one of the premier R/C pilots events. As mentioned in earlier posts, the attendance has increased each year and everyone leaves with plenty of stick time. We welcome any suggestions or ideas to incorporate into our planning. [8D] Bill

RE: WARBIRDS OVER OKLAHOMA 2010
Big Corsair to attend Warbirds Over Oklahoma 2010!! This is a CARF 1:4.5 scale masterpiece. It is the complete package with outstanding detail by the CARF team. I will be powering with the Moki 250cc radial and will turn a large 3-blade prop with scale hub from Solo Props. It will have a folding wing mechanism and a complete cockpit kit from Dynamic Balsa. I am on my way and plan to paint this fall. Here are few photos of the project.
