HI KIDS.
Just to let everyone know. The 2005 Twin commander Flight Group
flyin and convention will be held in Marina California (Near Monterey) Sept
22-25 Thursday will be an arrival day and "Pizza Party" Tech. Workshops and
Seminars begin Friday AM and are intended for the "boys" (everyone is welcome)
The gals will join us for lunch and the afternoon will be spent having fun
together seeing local attractions. I am planing a fly-out for Saturday
afternoon (maybe a poker run).
I have blocked 30 rooms and am talking with Enterprise rent a car about
delivering cars to the airport. The meeting facility at Marina looks great!
Sat evening awards banquet location TBA, but will probably be a little
less formal that before and feature Mexican food (in keeping with the location)
If you are interested in attending, let me know and I will forward a
registration form. It will be a blast and there is always great information
shared. Hope to see all of you there!!
Jim Metzger Director, TCFG

HI KIDS.
I just returned from a nice flight in triple 2. Flew to Nampa ID
S67, for a couple of days to help a close friend annual his Skymaster. Flew
home today (10.5 32 X 2550rpm = 157 KTIA, 177 KTS over the ground)
An old friend of mine has a great WW 2 museum and had a "Mustang
Invitational" event today. They had 5 Mustangs (Including "Ole Yeller", RA Bob
Hoovers old mount, still painted in his livery), 2 P-40s, a Wildcat, and a
Skyraider. They were flying rides all day long. It was so good to hear those
things fly past. They even had a number of gals dressed on 40s cloths (the seem
up their hose) Man, they sure looked good. I love the way women dressed
back then, no wonder we had a "baby boom"!!
I was fortunate to depart right behind a flight of 4 P-51s!! What fun.
Anybody else fly their Commander anywhere this week end?? jb

Well...not this past week...does Memorial Day weekend count?
Ellen and I flew out to Flagstaff on our way to Santa Fe, and got stopped by
thunderstorms just East of the airport. Before we got out of the plane we
were greeted by Orville Wiseman of Wiseman Aviation, the only FBO on the
field. He came up and said, "I used to own a 500A, too. Sure do miss it!"
We ended up renting a car and driving on to Santa Fe. Looked at some
beautiful land in Southwestern Colorado, near Chromo [a general store and
post office]. If anyone is interested in 109 acres, 24 miles South of
Pagosa Springs for half the cost of a *small* California condo, this is very
nice:
www.coloradoviews.com
We then stopped in at Sandia Airpark [1N1], in Edgewood, NM [27 miles East
of Albuquerque]. Ellen fell in love with NM. If you had told me before the
weekend that we would be buying a lot in an airpark in NM, I would have told
you to stop smoking that stuff. But that is just what we did. There is
already a Shrike there - turns out I bought the lot right across the
taxiway/street from the guy who owns it. Is Jorge Gonzales in the group?
So not only will I [eventually] be living on an airpark, I will be living in
an Aero Commander ghetto on an airpark!
www.sandia-airpark.com
In a few years, you can come and visit!

Jimbob,
Sounds GREAT! I can't wait to attend the first official Commander Fly-In
that's happening in my own backyard!
If there's anything I can do to help with logistics, let me know. Also, if
you need to make an "Administrative Visit" before the actual event, the
Metzger family (even Iguana-Metzgers) are always welcome at Casa de
Vormbaum!
Although, you might want to call ahead. I flew from PAO to HWD today (uhh,
about 8 min. flight) to visit Morris for a cup of coffee & some pie, and
ended up stuck there. Someone in a twin (a low-wing airplane obviously)
decided to land wheels-up at PAO, resulting in the closure of the airport
for about 2 hours.
Chalk one up for the high-vs-low wing argument. Do that in a Commander and
you can probably get the runway cleared in 15 minutes. With no damage to
engine or props.
/J
PS: It's still a good idea to make sure the rollers are out BEFORE touching
down.
