The 2nd Annual Chattanooga Heli Jamboree will be held on May 28th-30th. In addition to the event we will be hosting the inaugural Xtreme 3D Traveling School with Kam Wyatt, Henry Caldwell, and Clint Akins.
The event is held in Chattanooga TN right off I75 at Camp Jordan Park. Chattanooga is within 2hrs of most major southern cities and easily accessible from the interstate. For anyone wishing to fly into the area we have the Chattanooga Metropolitan Airport which is 15 minutes from our flying field.
The event has a 25.00 pilot fee which includes the following:
Event T-shirt
Saturday Lunch
Saturday Dinner (Catered from local rest.)
Pilot Hospitality Tent (complimentary soft drinks and water)
Free Massages in the Massage therapy tent!!
If you would like any additional information, or would like to participate in the 3D school please contact me at chas1025@msn.com

Bart,
Unless they are kidnapped and held for ransom they will be doing the school here in Chattanooga on May 27-28--Jamboree is 28-30. As of the other day we had a few official spots left, more so in the advanced than in the intermediate......Kam and Henry are doing the advanced.
I think the club is going to provide lunch to the students and instructors during the class,,working on the finals of that this next week. If anyone needs any information just let me know.
Thanks
Charles

I am looking forward to meeting all the new attendees this year. If you see me running around feel free to introduce yourself. If everything works out as planned we should have a nice group of pilots--last year we had 58 for the first event and I am shooting for 75 this year. We are putting the final things together, getting the television stations setup along with the radio stations so we can get some spectators out for the event......
Thanks

Special Announcement!!!
Eric Larson has offered to do a 3D setup clinic/discussion on Saturday May 29th during our event. This will be led by Eric and will include his tips on 3D setup and flight. We may need to have a signup sheet just in case the group gets to large for what Eric might feel is beneficial. If you are interested in participating just check for a signup sheet when you register for the funfly...
This is a great addition to the Xtreme 3D School going on right before the event and we are happy to be able to offer this to all in attendance.
Thanks
