Holding Aviation to a HIGHER STANDARD™

     SEPT 2007 FLY-IN SPECIAL EDITION

Instead of having you guess, thought we'd just tell you that the answer is there.  The sponsors have helped out this year, but it is a HUGE expense to us to put this on every year.   We constantly find ourselves making decisions like . . .

• "Do we want to re-do our bathroom this year or should we spend the money on tables and chair rental for the fly-in?" 

• "Should we take that bonus check and put a down payment on a new car or should we buy tents for the fly-in?" 

• "Should the tax refund check be used for new furniture or should we rent an 8 head shower trailer for the fly-in?"

• "Hey, we got a little extra income from ferrying an airplane for someone.  Should we repaint the house or rent port-a-pots for the fly-in?"

I'm sure you get the point . . . Every year the event grows by roughly 20 - 25% as do the expenses.   This year is no different and so far over $10,000 has been spent on the event.

We hope you enjoy it.
