The third Saturday (February 15th) is upon us, so lets get together for lunch at our monthly RV luncheon. This Saturday we will meet at Carl's BBQ for some good BBQ. Nothing will get you more motivated to finish your plane than our RV get together and some good Texas BBQ. Carl's is located at Weiser Airpark on HWY 290 frontage road between Telge and Huffmeister in the NW part of Houston. We meet at 11:30 am.

I'll be there with a guest - my director of software and I are going up for a hop in his Cherokee in the morning, and we'll drop by Weiser for lunch afterwards.
 
Anyone coming to the lunch meet up tomorrow have the OP46 instructions available. It's for the stall warning install, I seem to have misplaced mine.
 
If anyone's ready for some practice canopy drilling or cutting, let me know and I'll bring you the test piece (old canopy from Paul Dye's RV-8).

Monthly Houston RV Luncheon

Sounds like it was a great time. Just got back into town and will catch up with everyone next month. Thanks to the Lone Star Squadron for flying down from Conroe!

Did anyone get a count of how many people were there? Any new attendees?

There were 3 full tables (6+6+4) plus some added chairs, I would guesstimate turnout to about 20.
