Re: Schedule for 2008 Summit

Any chance in a quick buzz around the mountains? That would be unbelievable.

I asked an F-16 pilot the same thing once at an event I was working at and I am pretty sure I know the answer.

Well Iasked, but no...

Several things here. yes money is a thing. $7 a galon, 75 gallons and hour, and $40+ per engine per start. Ouch for sure. Then there is the noise thing. Ouray likes their peace, I never even asked the city, but hey. safety... the helicopter will be at max everything landing and taking off. Safety is everything!

I would love to talk about turbine engines and rotor tuning etc. Look me up at the class.

Sorry that there won't be any rides. But please support Ouray Mountain Rescue for the class!

What got me into air medical was those orange helicopters in Denver 20 years ago.

Thanks for your support.

Immediately following dinner will be the RAFFLE! Bring the strongest person you know to help you carry home some sliders, an Inchworm Lefty, some Demello bumpers, an All-Pro bumper, or maybe a supercharger! Please note you need to be present to win at this raffle.[/b]
Please note the importance of the italic text above.

I managed to win the prize item last year, and could barely get rhat lefty off the table, much less into my rig!
