Just got back from Airventure an hour ago (fantastic as usual :D). They have a pretty large flea (fly) market there, and it's a rocketeers dream. They have everything from tools, to electrical supplies, to glue, and beyond (one store was even selling 727 parts :)). Besides picking up some small tools, by far my best find was some army surplus nylon chord. I ended up picking up two rolls, each 100 yards. One was 1/2" wide, and the other was 1 1/2" wide. All for the low price of $27. :D

I'll post some pics tomorrow.
 
Indeed everyone should go to my blog right now! There read about the wicked witch of the Midwest....

Hey... Isn't this thread in the wrong section? More like a coffee house thing I'd say...:rolleyes:
 
This blog has been forwarded to every pilot i know.

Also, one may classify this in the "Support and Recovery" section if one goes just by that name without the description of the discussion section. Kind of reminds me of ASR or the alt.sysadmin.recovery[1] newsgroup. My favorite thing from that newsgroup was the LART[2]. Mr. Kaplow[3] knows what I'm talking about. He's read the BOFH[4] chronicles.
