    Subject: Moe's Famous!
    --> Commander-List message posted by: "John Vormbaum" <john@vormbaum.com> If you have "The Outdoor Channel", tune in to this week's "Wings to Adventure". It features a special on EAA's Airventure, and twice shows Moe's 680FP, N680RR, taxiing past the camera on the grass as the host talks about the aviation fans that the event attracts. Way to represent the TCFG, Moe! /John

    Subject: Re: Fly-In
    --> Commander-List message posted by: "nico css" <nico@cybersuperstore.com> Jim, Sadly, I wouldn't be able to attend the fly-in this year. Give my regards to everyone. Although I have never met any of you personally, it feels as if you all are already old friends. :-) I have not heard from Dan yet, but I am sure that we would get the TCFG website updated soon. It would be nice if someone could take pictures of the events, write a narrative, and send them to me for publication. Have fun!
