Sounds like the gov'ment boys ought to check into the SSPR. Your local price ($65) on the AeroShell 15W-50 is a little high. I just paid $56 including 7.5 percent sales tax on a case of 12 here in Charlotte. Next time you need a case let me know. I'll pick up and you can fly down for visit and get the oil. Better for you then a hamburger flight.

Besides, maybe she was padding her expense account ;-) The gas price I am confident of, since I pumped, paid and hand-transferred every gallon myself. Price went up 14 cents the following day (yesterday). Guess I boosted local demand too much ;-) -Stormy -----Original Message----- From: BOB martin Sent: Tue, 6 Jun 2006 11:37:41 +0000 Subject: RVSouthEast-List: Plane fuel ramblings-oil prices --> RVSouthEast-List message posted by: "BOB martin" We just bought 3 cases for about 52.00 each incl taxes from Quarles in Culpeper I was shocked, because we had been buying it for 38.00 Bob Martin Louisa Va >From: "Dale Ensing" >To: >Subject: Re: RVSouthEast-List: Plane fuel ramblings >Date: Tue, 6 Jun 2006 07:17:15 -0400 > >Stormy >Are you trying to corner the market on mogas?!

The Danville Airshow Board was impressed and are talking about how great a performance you provided. Our airshow FAA observer was also pleased with your skill level and professionalism. I have never seen such a tight formation of RVs and perfect timing on the breaks. Overall the airshow was a big success and a lot of fun! Thanks for being a part of it. Wayne -- -- ________________________________ Message 7 _____________________________________ Time: 07:37:20 AM PST US From: "James Clark" Subject: Re: RVSouthEast-List: Palmetto Flight Airshow Thanks Wayne! :-) Good to hear it went well "from the ground". The Sunday version was better than Saturday as we were weather delayed **and** one of our members had engine problems, causing us to shift to a different routine. (Was kinda bumpy especially on Saturday. :-) ) Did you or anyone get any pictures? James p.s. Please tell the lady that was on Unicom that Palmetto Flight said "mucho thanks" for her accomodation *and* accomodating tone of voice. She was very helpful and made it a lot easier than some "controllers". And with all the traffic that was happening there, it was nice to know that she was working with us.

For those not familiar with Steele it is a grass strip 650' elev, runways 18-36 in good condition,located 3 miles South of Walnut Cove (N63) and is not on the charts. Contact Steele traffic on 123.0 (same as Walnut Cove). It wll be mowed short Friday and will be no concern for RV's with low wheel pants. There is a patch of new grass abount 1/3 of the way down 18 and Mike would prefer that you land short or long of it to avoid tire skids. It's smooth and firm so no problem if you touch down on it. Mike is expecting about 45 planes so watch out for slow flying Cubs. I know of 5 RVs for sure and I hope to see a lot more.

It's 2500 ft. The 650' is elevation.

Around 3:30 I called Tad at work to BS about airplane building (I'm not flying yet so I can't BS about that.) and mentioned I'm ready for some help cutting the canopy. By 4:00 he was on the way home to change. He picked up his son and riveting partner, TJ and they were in my basement by 5:30. By 6:30 we were done cutting the thing and sipping on some good bourbon. Needless to say, I haven't picked up a power tool since he left. Thanks again for the help Tad! it looks great.
