TAXIWAY 0 #9 September 20, 2009 NO TURBINE BOOGIE with a turbine I dont get it, care to explain? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
grannyinthesky 0 #10 September 20, 2009 QuoteNO TURBINE BOOGIE with a turbine I dont get it, care to explain? Last year, we had the first Michelle Barker No Turbines Boogie (all C-182's) and when we first started planning this one, we expected to have the same. Then, thanks to Rex at West Plains Skydiving in Ritzville, WA, we found out we're going to have their caravan on ihe way to its winter quarters in Mesquite. Too late to change to boogie name, so the no turbine boogie with a turbine."safety first... and What the hell..... safety second, Too!!!
