REMEMBER

We are planning catered barbeque food this year.  It cannot be done with out an accurate count.  It is mandatory that we know the co-pilot and all passengers in each plane to get an accurate head count.

Wear your B2Osh shirt and cap for the B2Osh party Sunday.  The group photo looks great when we are all wearing the shirts.

Check tire pressure.

Bring tie downs, suntan lotion and all the other little necessities.  A checklist is worthwhile.

A board approximately 12" x 18" placed under each tire in the camping area prevents the wheels from sinking in and makes pulling out of your parking space much easier.  From Art Brock: "One of the important things we learned from the ABS sparweb study (and demonstrated to the government) is that the cracking is caused by tension stresses on the belly of the airplane resisted by the spars.  This can arise in several ground operational scenarios, hard braking, high power runups, and towing over bumps or out of trenches in the turf.  If you can visualize pulling hard on the nose gear while the mains are stuck in the mud you are visualizing the exact scenario that would cause the web to want to pull away from the huckbolts and eventually form cracks. Not only do the boards make it easier on your back, they may help prevent a future sparweb crack."
