No, I haven't been flying heli's for just one day.....
Its just I just have been told about Helifreak today...
So, I am doing my best to fun an event and promote it.
So, if you want some Southern Fried heli flying (and can't make it to Mayday), please come to the northwest atlanta area.

James/Mike,
I did a mapquest coming from Chattanooga and it shows us getting off on exit 288. I then looked on the bcmarc website and it shows exit 283. Which is the better/right exit.
Thanks

I like the Emerson exit (I think it's 283) - but I think 288 is actually a little quicker coming from the North.

Super Event! Weather turned out all right after all. I had a great time there flying, camping and most of all seeing all of my buddies that were there! No where will you find a group of great folks like you will at a heli event!! Thanks to all for setting up, reorganizing and running the event. I will be back, :cry: :( ONCE I get my truck fixed. It died pulling the cargo box on I-75S on the trip home. If it weren't for Chris Coker, we would have never made it back home. THANK YOU Chris Coker, you DA MAN!
Chris spent the entire day Sunday running us around finding a truck and getting my vehicle loaded up on it on the side of I-75, in the rain. Then pulled the cargo box to his home for us to get later! Never forget you man! I owe you big time!
Later,
