Its a new age thing-"The Gender Reveal Party"

Scouter

Exeter Maine
When my dad was born, granddad didnt come to the hospital until the next day to see his new son. When I was born, my dad finished out the day planting potatoes on the farm then came into the hospital that night.
I was there sorta helping when all three of my kids came into the world and was thankful to be a part of it. In all of the births so far, none of us knew what whether you were getting a boy or a girl. Today, the ultrasound technology is so good you can see all sorts of things in the moms belly, especially the two most important spots. Therefore, the gender reveal party is born.


You may remember my daughter getting married last June, when a flyin broke out at a wedding, it was big fun. Now nature has taken its course, and my baby is having a baby not a year into the deal. In keeping with the aviation theme, she somehow wanted to keep the cub theme going, so she dreamed up a smoke pass which would either be pink smoke, or blue smoke for her baby gender. Go figure out how to do it dad. Took me a few experiments, but we figured out a way. The smoke system will only produce white smoke, if you want to do color you have to inject a chemical into the exaust of a jet engine, of which the Sport Cub is not equipped. We figured it out and the rest is history.

Last night we had to shut down the work a bit early and get with the family and friends around the firepit while dad fired up the cub. A couple of fake out passes down the strip just to agitate the crowd, and this is the money pass

Blue smoke looks like another boy. We can use all the tractor drivers we can get our hands on



Really pretty night in Maine, we have had nothing but cold and wet for a month.

Got back on the ground and the happy couple had one more announcement, the name
of said new baby.

The chief pilot had a fair amount of trouble seeing when my daughter said the baby boy would be named after the man she admired most,
her dad. James Everett Pullen, cant wait to give you a ride in the cub. Will even show you where the smoke button is
I am truly blessed with great family, and it keeps getting bigger and better




Congrats Allyssa and Mark. See you in Oct James Everett

Very cool. You have a wonderful family. Congrats And God bless to the new parents to be.
 
Jim, this is a totally cool thread! Thanks for sharing this with us.

I can understand why the chief pilot had trouble seeing when the name was announced. What a great tribute to any father!

The whole concept of a "gender revealing party" was new to me until my daughter did this to announce the arrival of Annabelle. It is a neat concept, certainly a "New Age" thing.

Congratulations, and nice job flying the aircraft with the blue smoke. I love the idea, and congratulate you for pulling it off!

Congratulations! Another young man entering an aviation family is never a bad thing.



....more on this blue smoke trick please

When I saw the title of this thread, I was SO afraid it was gonna be some kinda LGBT-whatever (aka "undecided" or "in between") thing.
Thanks for keeping it real. And congrats on the grandson!
 
So last time around the blue smoke stork machine gave me this little guy;

Hes a pretty special boy to me, loves the planes.

Hired again last night by the same daughter, this time we had to change up the smoke to a different color.

Congrats Allyssa and Mark you overcame the male dominant gene around here. Cant wait to meet Charlotte, number 6

Much thanks to my wingman JP Russell, thanks for the FAC work and high cover, and directing the smoke pass. Good work

Congrats, we are expecting our first child in the next few days. Still don’t know what the gender is but will find out soon. Did manage to put a sign in the plane window.Image1540045737.185324.jpg

Good work chip d. Look at the code numbers on the bag. The first number on the code is the day of the week manufactured, the next 2 is the plant code. Our plant is 66, Killingly ct. Most likely would be our spuds

The Red Sox trip to the World Series next week means no downtime this weekend for us. Extra loads in the system already
