Tad Olmsted Posted November 21, 2011 Report Share Posted November 21, 2011 All, As most of you know, my hangar is a stones throw away from the EXPO area at KSEF (old Paradise hangar). This year has been incredible for me and I want to throw a little appreciation back to all my friends, old and new. During the EXPO I will have hamburgers, hot dogs, snacks and plenty of cold beverages for all to enjoy. This is my way of saying thanks and I wanted some way to put a face with some of you that I have only talked to on the phone. I am sure the socializing will be a lot of fun and I'll have the corn toss area set up for anyone brave enough to try and beat me. I may even have to wager an oil change on it . So feel free to stop by and say hi and bring a friend. Thanks for a great year and I look forward to an even better 2012!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tad Olmsted Posted January 9, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 9, 2012 We're getting close!!! I placed a large beverage order this week and I will be picking up the vittles next Tuesday. The hangar is getting squared away and my desk top is starting to see the sun again. The corn toss boards are being waxed up and the bags are getting a condition inspection tomorrow. Have a safe, great and memorable trip to Sebring!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roger Lee Posted January 9, 2012 Report Share Posted January 9, 2012 Corn tossing? Out west we eat corn and don't throw it. Leave it to the east coast. Tad, Hope you have a lot of people and a good show. Did you get the engine isolators? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tad Olmsted Posted January 11, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 11, 2012 Roger, So your not coming to try and de-thrown the undisputed corn toss champion of the world??? Yeah I got them last week, thanks. Hopefully start this one by Thursday, but will be Friday at the latest. Havent seen your check clear my bank yet, call me if it hasn't shown up. Sent it last week. I just opened up a vitual terminal and can accept all major credit cards at a very low rate. It's so low I won't even need to charge my customer a fee. Might want to think about it if you haven't done so yet. Cashless society these days warrents it, plus it's darn convinient. Take care Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mick Posted January 11, 2012 Report Share Posted January 11, 2012 Tad, hope to see you next week, but I don't know where the old paradise was. Only thing I can find is the terminal (restaurant) and Lockwood. Can you help ? Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tad Olmsted Posted January 11, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 11, 2012 Dave, From the show, follow the taxi way North West leading to runway 14. The only set of commercial and T hangars are on both sides of the taxi way. On the right are T hangars and on the left is a large new Commecial Hangar. You will see my Tecnam service center banner on the side of the building. After hours you will smell the cooking and be able to hear the beer and wine chilling in the background. Will be great meeting you too, Tad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jim Meade Posted January 18, 2012 Report Share Posted January 18, 2012 Tad, I've enjoyed our phone chats and wish I could make it to Sebring this year to meet you in person. Maybe next time. It makes the trip even more enticing. I was there last year and enjoyed it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FastEddieB Posted January 19, 2012 Report Share Posted January 19, 2012 Karen and I hope to make it down Friday, with the main visit on Sat. Staying with friends with a strip near Lake Placid. If we arrive in time on Friday, Tad was nice enough to squeeze me in for a compression check and carb balance. We were going to head down today, but we have a sick dog and we're keeping an eye on her. Best laid plans, and all that... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FastEddieB Posted January 20, 2012 Report Share Posted January 20, 2012 Looks like we're scrubbing this mission. It's really misty in the GA mountains right now, and that combined with iffy weather coming home Sunday is all conspiring to make this a no-go. Have fun, guys - maybe we can try for a Sun 'n' Fun meetup! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
