Hiya, John

I talked with Steve Koll after the meeting last night and he mentioned that he may be kicking down some aircraft for the Shootdown.  I'll let him confirm for himself but he told me that he was thinking about throwing in his Stryker to challenge any sharpshooters.  That would seperate the men from the boys!

Steve also volunteered to donate CO2 for the guns if we need it.  He works at the welder's supply shop--sorry Steve but the name escapes me at the moment.

Guys, Steve Koll works at Airgas on Piner Rd. We use them quite a bit here at work and highly recommend them!

Here's another one ready for the "Paint Ball Shoot". Phil called me yesterday and asked if I would try and make it fly again. Well--it's ready !! The old K&B carb was frozen,  the battery, of course was junk, and the motor felt like it had sand in it !! Soaked the carb. in penetrating goop all night, put another battery in it and it already had a JR receiver, so all I had to do there was put a 47 crystal in it and whadayaknow--the carb freed up this morning. Sooooooo-I re-plumbed the fuel tank, put it all back together, fueled 'er up and she fired right up !! Can't waijt for "Opening Day"
