10th annual Texas Fly in

[skyski_tige]

The 10th annual Texas Fly in will be on Sept 11th - 14th in Weatherford Texas. It will be held near Tin Top Road on the Brazos river. There is tent camping as well as hotels near by.

It would be great if we had a strong Tige' showing for the event.

I'll make sure not to be there that weekend! Haha!

Also the river is down about 2 feet which is a lot. Hopefully that will change with this rain we are getting.

I will be there Thursday evening to Sunday. I hope it goes back up. It was down 2 feet last year.

Is the river ski-able with it down another two feet from last year?

I am considering coming down. We have 10 or 12 coming from
Colorado again.

May join them

I would say that it is still 2 feet down. I will call Spitz tomorrow and find out.

Matt,
I heard a rumor that they were going to be dropping Ganbury 5 feet around the first of September to fix the dam. Have you heard anything about that?

Yes you can still ski it. Just some parts of the river you have to really watch your depth. Some places are 3 ft deep. Nothing like wiping out and then standing up.

No. I haven't heard of that. I'll have to ask my buddy who has a place out there. We will probably head out there this weekend.

I just spoke to the Brazos River authority and they are not planning on dropping the lake for any reason at this time.

water was 4 ft. low this past weekend. actually hit a sand bar and bent the prop. but we put in at the kimball bridge just north of whitney. dunno if this means anything for the northern parts, never been there.

[skyski_tige]

Thanks for the update but I don't think the conditions on the river will be the same. We are riding North of Lake Granbury. This is held just South of Weatherford.

ya'll should be sittin real pretty. it may even rise a good bit with this tropical storm washing in. we are suspected to get anywhere from 3 - 6" of rain this week here in the metroplex...but we all know how weather forecasts go.

[Matt Garcia]

Anyone from here going? I'll be out there on Friday night and all day Saturday. Probably be out in either a black and white Supra 21V or my RZ2.

Matt,

Had some family issues and could not make the trip afterall.

7 guys from Colorado coming there. Have a great time. Texas Fly In
is always a blast.

You might want to rethink this in light of Ike. Weather looks to be kinda dicey.
