Folks,
I have posted in TripTalk about the Charity Fly-In "Vectors For Hope" that I am hosting here in Houston on Saturday, September 28th. We are having a raffle and silent auction on the day of with a TON of really cool stuff, but are also having a special raffle that has tickets being sold ahead of time. This is what we are calling the "Aviators Dream Package" which will consist of:
A P51 Mustang Ride in "Galveston Gal" ($1995 Vaslue)
Free Admission for two to the Lonestar Flight Museum
A One nights stay at The San Luis Resort
Dinner accommodations for two (place TBD)
We are only selling 200 of these tickets and they are $25 a piece, so you have a pretty good shot at winning. You do not need to be present to win, although we would love for you to come out on the day of! You can purchase your tickets online at:
http://vectorsforhope.org/p51-mustang-raffle/The Fly-In is being put on by myself and five other controllers from Houston Approach. The mission is to raise money for Angel Flight, The Houston Ground Angels, and Around The World For Life and to promote general aviation and get the community involved at the airport. As of right now, I have 3 P51's, 2 A26 Invaders, a B17, a B25, Several Stearman's, a C60, a C47, a PT19, a couple of T6, an L39, numerous helicopters, and all of the manufacturers (Beech, Cessna, Cirrus, Piper, Lancair, Diamond, and Socata) will have their new airplanes on display. We are also going to have food and drinks, a children's area with carnival style games and bounce castles, presentations, seaplane and helicopter rides, and a raffle and silent auction. Mark your calendars and try to make it out, it should be a good time!
