I have tossed the idea to a few friends in Dallas to consider putting together a Fun-Fly / NIGHT-FLY event in Dallas on April 26th. What are your thoughts?

Maybe we could set up a general fun-fly during the day but have an "official" Night-Fly event scheduled at dusk. Something like 6:30 - 9pm..?? I would love to have a food service (I'm big on BBQ) to come out and sell food so no one would have to leave. Maybe on big PIZZA run..??

I only know of a handful of people who actually fly night planes but if we could get a nice gathering together, it might be worth our while...especially for this particular forum.

Please drop your feedback in this thread. Looking forward to the responses.

I am in too - I think we are planning on the 114th but not sure Ronnie or Wendell has anything cooked up yet. Pizza or BBQ sounds good and it is close to food.....

Sounds good to me. We can either bring out some BBQ or grill at the field.

Yea...now we're talking. BBQ & flying...I'm in heaven!

Again, I can't take charge of this since I'm not a member of the 114th. If your club is willing to offer the field for a day/evening event, I'll do whatever I can down here (Houston) to promote the event.

The sooner we can post the "official" event on RCGroups, the better. I'm sure we'll get some more folks interested. I would love to include some night-flying videos and pics in the main link to get some people interested.

As for BBQ....do you guys have a place near the field that is willing to cater? Or are you guys offering to do the BBQ yourself? I think we need to get some folks to sponsor a whole bunch of FOGGER/BUG spray!! :)

Add a link to this thread if you post something in the EVENTS area.

Sounds like fun to me :)

That also happens to be the same day (04/26) as my birthday :D

If it happens, and I can make it, I'll try to build something new to try and outshine Sparkys Bird Dog, although that will be a tall order ;)

Lee I am sorry but I just realized that I will be out of town on that night.
