      Fellow Commanders,
      
      Well, this is the moment some of you have been waiting for and before I get involved
      further in my work I'll post the photos of the meeting.
      
      I have not have a chance to comment on the photos, that can wait, meanwhile you
      all can flip through and download what you want.
      
      we have 2 folders:
      
      the TCFG in Carson City:
      
      http://picasaweb.google.com/YVABE560/TCFG09?feat=directlink
      
      and Reno Air Races:
      
      http://picasaweb.google.com/YVABE560/Reno09?feat=directlink
      
      ENJOY!
      
      previously (don't know if it went through):
      
      Hello Commanders,
      
      nice video, great time in Carson City and Reno, of course, and yeap, the U2 flew
      over our box a couple of times, another close encounter and personal!
      
      I just got off the plane, I'll try to down load and sort through my 1500+ photos...
      will post them soon... I still have the image of the P-51D Mustang flying
      over at 515 mph... incredible experience!
      
      Hope your wife is recovering Nico, 
      
      Dan & Teresa we missed you for sure, the night life was not nearly close to Downtown
      OK ... (thanks for that outing at the Wormy Dog!)
      
      we still had lots of laugh with Moe and Buddy buying a suspicious 1982 Cutlass
      as transportation mode... too many stories to tell! (but to give you a hint the
      deal involved jail, a trunk that would not open, no tags, a few lights to fix,
      and of course the cops!...
      
      Jim don't let the FAA let you down, keep on walking, staying healthy and get as
      much advice from the AOPO or EAA, they really can be helpful, 
      
      Mason, hope you are slowly recovering from your accident,
      
      we missed you all and hopefully see you next time!
      
      sincerely,
      
      Peter
      
      PD. and do I even need to mention..., dinner with Bob A. Hoover!????
      
      incredible!

      Need more cow bell!
      
      
      Was this a used car dealer - on the way to the airport - as planned?

      Fellow Commander Folks,
      
      
      This really was a super Commander get together!  
      
      
      If anyone is interested the 1988 Oldsmobile that Buddy and I purchased
      was sold for $ 250.00.

      Gang,
      
      It was a pleasure to meet so many Commander owners and enthusiasts in
      Carson City.  The collective knowledge in the room was amazing and well
      worth the trip.  Hats off to the "extra" skill sets some of you clearly
      possess.  Like classic car acquisition, prison inmate relations, law
      enforcement communications, and in Morris' case, reselling the same
      brake parts!  Dinner with R.A. (Bob) Hoover was special.  Thanks to Jim
      (and wife), and John Towner for getting it all done.
      
      I have a technical question on my fuel system (560F) which begs some
      expert response.
      
      Problem.  After fueling the main tank to 100 gallons, and the aux tanks
      to max (32.5 gal), I let plane sit overnight.  The next day, 5 to 10
      gallons is missing from the rt aux, but appears to have "drained" into
      the main.  The parts manual shows no common route in my book for this
      kind of "cross-feed".   So far, my solenoids have all been rebuild, and
      the vents checked to make sure they are clear.  Any ideas what the
      problem is?
      
      Regards and thanks again for a great time.
      
      Craig

      Hey Peter,
      
      Which Turbo Prop is the Red/White and Gold one?  Do you have something  with
       the tail number or do you know who the owner is?  Photo #57

      Hey Bert,
      
      the Turbo Prop is John Kamp's 690A N52PY serial # 11196with DASH10 Renaissance
      conversion on 5-9-2000.
      
      John is on photo #150 (in the middle) and to his left is Morris Kernick, always
      teaching us technicalities on the Commanders, gave a great talk on engine mounts
      and their maintenance.
      
      have a good one! and remember, you can download any pictures and if you want any
      more, let me know.

      Very nice pictures, Peter. Thanks. I could make out some name tags to put
      faces to the names. Overall, a great presentation of the week. The pictures
      of Bob Hoover were of particular value to me as I met Mr. Hoover back in the
      '70s when he performed in South Africa at the Lanseria airport. He
      autographed my program, too, which since was lost in the move to the U.S. in
      '93. It would have been particularly nice to meet with him again after all
      these years. 
      
      My wife spent six days the ICU and after another week in the regular ward,
      she was released from the hospital this week. She still needs 24x7 care and
      oxygen and daily outpatient visits to the hospital for continued treatment.
      It was certainly not a time for me to be away. It just goes to show how
      quickly things can change. Thanks for asking. 
      
      Well, there's always next year but there's not much hope of meeting with Bob
      Hoover any time soon. 
      
      Thanks
      
      Nico

      Our thoughts are with you & your wife. I hope she has a speedy recovery!
      
      We missed you this year. I'm still hoping you make it to a fly-in so that I
      can put a face with the name.
      
      Cheers,
      
      /John

      Hello Commanders,
      
      nice video, great time in Carson City and Reno, of course, and yeap, the U2
      flew over our box a couple of times, another close encounter and personal!
      
      I just got off the plane, I'll try to down load and sort through my 1500+
      photos... will post them soon... I still have the image of the P-51D Mustang
      flying over at 515 mph... incredible experience!
      
      Hope your wife is recovering Nico, 
      
      Dan & Teresa we missed you for sure, the night life was not nearly close to
      Downtown OK ... (thanks for that outing at the Wormy Dog!)
      
      we still had lots of laugh with Moe and Buddy buying a suspicious 1982
      Cutlass as transportation mode... too many stories to tell! (but to give you
      a hint the deal involved jail, a trunk that would not open, no tags, a few
      lights to fix, and of course the cops!...
      
      Jim don't let the FAA let you down, keep on walking, staying healthy and get
      as much advice from the AOPO or EAA, they really can be helpful, 
      
      Mason, hope you are slowly recovering from your accident,
      
      we missed you all and hopefully see you next time!
      
      sincerely,
      
      Peter
      
      PD. and do I even need to mention..., dinner with Bob A. Hoover!????

      Nico,
      
      Our thoughts are with you & your wife. I hope she has a speedy recovery!
      
      We missed you this year. I'm still hoping you make it to a fly-in so that I
      can put a face with the name.
      
      Cheers,
      
      /John

      Very nice pictures, Peter. Thanks. I could make out some name tags to put
      faces to the names. Overall, a great presentation of the week. The pictures
      of Bob Hoover were of particular value to me as I met Mr. Hoover back in the
      '70s when he performed in South Africa at the Lanseria airport. He
      autographed my program, too, which since was lost in the move to the U.S. in
      '93. It would have been particularly nice to meet with him again after all
      these years. 
      
      My wife spent six days the ICU and after another week in the regular ward,
      she was released from the hospital this week. She still needs 24x7 care and
      oxygen and daily outpatient visits to the hospital for continued treatment.
      It was certainly not a time for me to be away. It just goes to show how
      quickly things can change. Thanks for asking. 
      
      Well, there's always next year but there's not much hope of meeting with Bob
      Hoover any time soon. 
      
      Thanks
      
      Nico

      Thanks for sharing your great pictures Peter.? What a GREAT time we had with the
      TCFG folks at the Fly-in and Reno Air Races.? We still have BIG smiles on our
      faces from the wonderful time we had!!!!
      
      
      For those of you unable to attend you really need to carve time out of your schedule
      to come meet Peter next year?-- his enthusiasm is really infectuous!!!?
      And we could really use some more help keeping Buddy and Moe in line and out of
      trouble (hehe!!!)?

      I'm sorry to have missed you all during the Fly-In!
      
      
      I own a team that races at Reno- and while I had planned to take a day off
      to visit at the Fly-In- we suddenly found ourselves in first place (by 0.18
      knots) and as such my time was completely consumed with trying to find
      another tenth of a knot to maintain our lead.
      
      
      We wound up finishing in first- but a meager 0.08 knots-  so of course every
      member of the team is claiming that that last wax buff, or screw tightened
      made all the difference.  (In reality- it was our race pilot.  incredible
      work on his part to hold off a very determined competitor!)
      
      
      Hopefully next year's fly-in won't conflict with racing and we'll be able to
      make the trip to wherever it might be!

      Thanks for sharing your great pictures Peter.  What a GREAT time we had with
      the TCFG folks at the Fly-in and Reno Air Races.  We still have BIG smiles
      on our faces from the wonderful time we had!!!!
      
      
      For those of you unable to attend you really need to carve time out of your
      schedule to come meet Peter next year -- his enthusiasm is really
      infectuous!!!  And we could really use some more help keeping Buddy and Moe
      in line and out of trouble (hehe!!!)

      Fellow Commanders,
      
      Well, this is the moment some of you have been waiting for and before I get 
      involved further in my work I'll post the photos of the meeting.
      
      I have not have a chance to comment on the photos, that can wait, meanwhile
      you 
      all can flip through and download what you want.
      
      we have 2 folders:
      
      the TCFG in Carson City:

      and Reno Air Races:
      
      http://picasaweb.google.com/YVABE560/Reno09?feat=directlink
      
      ENJOY!
      
      previously (don't know if it went through):
      
      Hello Commanders,
      
      nice video, great time in Carson City and Reno, of course, and yeap, the U2
      flew 
      over our box a couple of times, another close encounter and personal!
      
      I just got off the plane, I'll try to down load and sort through my 1500+ 
      photos... will post them soon... I still have the image of the P-51D Mustang
      
      flying over at 515 mph... incredible experience!
      
      Hope your wife is recovering Nico, 
      
      Dan & Teresa we missed you for sure, the night life was not nearly close to 
      Downtown OK ... (thanks for that outing at the Wormy Dog!)
      
      we still had lots of laugh with Moe and Buddy buying a suspicious 1982
      Cutlass 
      as transportation mode... too many stories to tell! (but to give you a hint
      the 
      deal involved jail, a trunk that would not open, no tags, a few lights to
      fix, 
      and of course the cops!...
      
      Jim don't let the FAA let you down, keep on walking, staying healthy and get
      as 
      much advice from the AOPO or EAA, they really can be helpful, 
      
      Mason, hope you are slowly recovering from your accident,
      
      we missed you all and hopefully see you next time!
      
      sincerely,
      
      Peter
      
      PD. and do I even need to mention..., dinner with Bob A. Hoover!????
      
      incredible!

      Hi Folks,
      
      Been stuck in 'crowd killers' for the last 24 hours or so, but it is time
      for me to add my thanks to Jim and Sue for a great TCFG Flyin! Attending is
      always an absolute joy and highlight of the year.
      
      Many thanks to the Commander owners for turning up...thirteen aircraft this
      year...wow!
      
      Sincere thanks to John Towner for making our dinner with Mr Hoover possible
      and for 'floating' the Reno Races idea.
      
      Well done to Peter for capturing those many spontaneous moments that are
      always so thick on the ground at these flyins.
      
      Congratulations to Moe for being such a magnanimous holder of the 'Golden
      Peddle Award' for 2009!
      
      Be sure to put the end of September in your diaries for 2010 and plan on
      getting along...celebrating a decade of Commanderland...our style!
      
      Cheers
      
      Russell
