What is the plan for the Ramble stop-over at Stanley? Is the group planning to
hang around for the whole weekend or would there be a best day to come up and
visit & see all the Rebels (how many do we expect?)
For your rambling pleasure I have some last minute info. For those inclined to
stop over at Halifax International (YHZ) the landing fee has been taken care of
via the hard work of one of our local COPA members Arthur Van Maurik (and others
of course). He negotiated a lump sum for all light A/C visits for the year in
lieu of fee per landing and put up the $ with the idea that it would be
reimbursed by donations from the flying public. Bottom line is no bill everytime
you land.
The other thing of note is that Shearwater has eased off on the 24 hours notice
for visitor permission to land, you can call the same day (and I suppose on the
way) and drop in. The long runway should also be open again (prevailing wind,
after being closed about a year) as of now since an agreement with the
bureauacracy has been worked out.
Bottom line here is if anyone wants to come to the "big city" in these parts it
will be pretty easy to do it as there is public transportation from Shearwater
into the city core. Only snag for you I think Bob is the tramsponder thing but
I'm sure you could hitch a ride with someone suitably equipped.
Looking forward to meeting you at Stanley and seeing all the Rebelers.
Smooth trip!

Hi Steve !
Glad everyone enjoyed the evening - wish there were more
Murphy builders there, too .... we'll have to start organizing
a bit sooner next time !!! :-)
Glad to hear your Moose is on the way !!! Things will
eventually get back to normal over there, and production should
be much faster once the new plant gets up to speed .
It would be great if you could get up for a meeting -
next one is scheduled for Sunday, Sept. 14th, after a long
summer off Rambling to both coasts ! (It's tough, but somebody's ..) ;-) :-)
The power's been on now for almost 12 hours, after being
off and on twice for a few hours at a time - hope that's all !
We're all set to head out next Sunday - hope there are lots of
Rebel builders/lovers out there who will be joining us !!
Have fun building your Moose !! It WILL be worth it !!! ;-)
.....bobp & Anna
