Looking forward to it. I went to the fun fly in Louisville last Saturday and enjoyed the event. Got to see some great flying and meet some great people.

[Havoc]

Louisville was great. Those guys are going to try to make it to our event. Mark Fadely will be back this year also. He is our sound engineer and photographer :D. I think our raffle prize is a Raptor 50 Titan. I'll post more once we get that in stone. We had a large number of pilot prizes last year also and we will try to top that this year. $100 auto prize again also. Doug Trent won last year.

The Cookeville crowd will definitely be there.
Looking forward to it.

[Graeme]

Darn, looks like I'm gonna lose more money on raffle tickets, and be thrilled by more awesome autos and good flyin'.

Looking forward to this one again. We all had a blast last year and the field is awesome to fly at. The Lexington boys put on a first class FF. See ya there.

were on our way just outside of Louisville. ETA is about 200 pm

[Graeme]

Drivin' down from Louisville in the morning. Gotta see this one again, and might even bring something to embarass myself with.

[Havoc]

I'd like to thank everyone for attending our event. It was a lot of fun and I think we got a few new members as well. We will be raffling off the Raptor Titan Sunday. Mark won the auto contest and donated the money back to the club. So free food on sunday! :D

I didn't take many photos but I took these during Mark Fadely's flight.

Mark started something when he did that, didn't he?!

Who's the young fella with Mark in that first pic? He was doing some pretty good flying, too.

[big-al]

great event fellas and what a site yall have! great meeting new friends as well. for those that didn't make it...well you missed a great place to fly.

the guy in the photo with 'Mr blade scuff' is Andy P (Andy Panoncillo) from Muncie, IN. He put on quite a show as well..and one hard crash!

Mark, if you're on here, great flying to you and even BETTER music selections. I thought I was back in school a few times there. :cool:

see yall at the next FF,

[Graeme]

Thanks for the info on Andy, Big-Al.

The crash must have happened after I left. That had to hurt! He was doing some awesome flying there. It wasn't from trying one too many blade-scrapes, was it?!

[tnreefguy]

No. The spindle on the tail hub sheared in flight on that guys stratus. then it piroed out of control. the crash was nasty looking.
