Fall Fling 11
This was our 7th annual Fall Fling Fun-Fly. Some wind but it was a "Another Fine Day at the Flyin' Field"! We invited any and all who have an AMA card to come and a couple Ponca City Club members came. We did have about 75% of the club members show up, for some it was their first Fun-Fly. Plenty of food, Ron & Gene were the cooks supervised by Ron wife Debbie, Pork Ribs, Pork chops and Hot Dogs were on the grill as well and everyone brought a covered dish. As usual there was plenty of wonderful food for everyone to stuff themselves. The following are pictures are some of the activities of the day. I didn't get many of the flying shots. Gene & Ron organized the fun fly events. I am not sure who flew the helicopter chasing the balloons, he didn't any. I tried with my old 40 size combater, I don't think I got very close. This year Gene & Chris did a ruffle for the money in the pot, the club gets half. They sold $266.00 in tickets, Robert Hudnall from Ponca City had the winning ticket. He got $133.00 and the club got $133.00! Great Ideas Guys, Thanks! It was another great day, everyone had fun, no crashes and many got home to watch the last half of the OSU-Texas football games. OSU kicked the sh t out of Texas so it was a good day!. Hey, if you have pictures that could go on the web site, e-mail them to me. It sure would help me make the site more interesting.
