a great "big band" plays real danceable music from by-gone eras, and a large fun-loving, aviation-oriented crowd, many of whom will be in some kind of uniform or dress (mostly reminiscent of World War II), who will dance the night away. If you like good barbeque, you can't lose. If you like airplanes, you can't lose. If you like great big band music, you can't lose. If you like to dance, or just watch the show put on by other dancers, you can't lose. This is not a “hosted” South Central Tribe ICS fly-in event per se. In previous years, some South Central Tribe members have gotten together and sat together at this Vintage Flying Museum extravaganza. We are going to do that again this year. Although, we have not yet received all the details from the Vintage Flying Museum, we have projected the schedule and costs based on year’s past. Send Dick Brown $40 (per person) by Wednesday, October 4 for reservations for the barbeque dinner, the dance, and table reservations so we can sit together. Dick will have the dinner and dance tickets to give to everyone as they show up for the event. The dinner ($15) is from 6:30 p.m. until 8:30 p.m. (dinner tickets are sold only in advance). If you want to skip the dinner, you can join us just for the dance from 8:00 p.m. until midnight (tickets $20 in advance, $25 at the door). Dick’s address is 7015 Roundrock Rd, Dallas, TX ,75248. He can be reached by e-mail at dbrown8527@sbcglobal.net or by home telephone at (972) 661-3923. He doesn’t carry his cell phone except when he needs to, but will carry it on the day of the event, so all can be assured of contacting him at the last minute, if needed, at (214) 500-6666. If anyone plans to fly in, the closest FBO on Meacham Field is the Sandpiper, about one-half of a mile from the Vintage Flying Museum Hangar. It is feasible to walk, but the neighborhood isn't all that great. If you will let Dick know when you are arriving, he’ll meet you at the Sandpiper FBO, and transport you to either the Barbeque Dinner and Dance, or to a motel if you are staying overnight. The Vintage Flying Museum may be negotiating a rate with a nearby facility. There will be more motel information for those wishing to stay overnight published in the SS Tribe newsletter Smoke Trails. If you are not a South Central Tribe member, you can either ask Dick to send you a newsletter or contact him personally closer to the event for motel information. We look forward to having a fun group. Fly-In Eureka Springs, Ark. October 27-29 Please note date change. The date for this fly-In has been changed from a previous announcement, due to conflicts with other major events in the area. Eureka is the Greek word for “I found it.” You too will be shouting EUREKA from the mountain tops once you visit this small, quaint, historical town. Located deep in the heart of the Ozark Mountains, Eureka Springs was officially named on the Fourth of July in 1879. It soon became famous during the Victorian era for its “curing springs” and quickly grew in size to over 10,000 residents. Continued on Page 34 32 • Comanche Flyer SEPTEMBER 2006
