well I couldn't have asked for better weather for todays show...   I should still make it tomorrow but I'm not sure now as my X-wife is giving me hell and my girlfriend is acting like she needs a padded room...  If it keeps up after I see her tonight I will for sure be there tomorrow because I'm going to tell both of them to find a really tall cliff and they can just hold hands as they go over...

I won't be leaving for Clear Lake until sometime after 11AM from Santa Fe. I will have CudaJR and my stepson with me and I have to wait for them to get back from church.Once I get there I'll give Deck a call via cell phone and find Ya'll once I am onsite. Looks like it's going to be a nice day for a walk on the tarmac! Here's the number to the cell phone I'll have with me..281-830-2433Carpal Tunnel in my trigger finger....Rocky...TX-CUDA on UBITX-CUDA on HyperLobby

Just returned from Wings over Houston and hooked up with TX-Rahman,Deck,Zen,Papa_Zen, and Rahmans' better half.CudaJR is down with the flu so he was not able to attend this time. We could not have asked for better weather...saw some impressive flying and some nice planes. TX-Rahman and Deck took some good pics that I am sure will be culled and the good one posted post haste! I can report that up close the JU-52 looks like it was fabricated with sheet metal..well, down here we call it "barn tin".Saw some P-51's do the fly-by with the F-16 and F-15 that was pretty neat. I am sure that the other TX'ers that were there can add to this narrative so I'll close for now....News at 11:00.....Carpal Tunnel in my trigger finger....Rocky...TX-CUDA on UBITX-CUDA on HyperLobby

I must post one pic of an episode witnessed at the show immediately....The dialogue from the cockpit went something like this...TX-Zen  " Deck, I've lost him, find him fast, talk to me...  talk to me Deck!"TX-Deck " Sir, we pasted him on the last run, advise you check forward visibility and take necessary action..."Feel free to add your own quote....  lmao!TX-Deck out.

I cannot tell you how much I have laughed at this one....  (Sorry Zen...)...  The kind of laughing that hurts deep down... Zen:  I will straighten it out in PhotoShop for ya...  Can't have the C.O. of the squadron with his helmet like that....Will post the pic of Cuda and I in the cackpit later this evening...On a seperate note...How much do you think I could get just the forward section of a cockpit like this for???  Chop the nose and the rear seat off....hmmm....  Also:  They still had all the instruments installed....Regards,TX-Rahman"BLUE 2"
