Jets Over Kentucky was a huge success. There was unlimited flying for the pilots. In all my years of pattern, Jets, and others events, this was the best group of pilots I have witnessed. There were friendly faces all week. No complaints...only helpful suggestions. It was indeed a pleasure to host the event. River City RC (my club) provided the manpower to make this event a resounding success. I will do a follow-up later. Here are the results. Best Military Jet - ZAP Glue- Don Winn-Hawk Best Military Performance - FTE - Bob Bush - F-100 Engineering excellence- Jet Central - Paul Blanchard- F 104 Best Craftsmanship-Jet Cat-Rod Snyder - F-100 (Red Bull) Best Sport Jet - ZAP Glue - Larry Kramer - Bob Cat Best Sport Performance -Jet Central - Adrian Valencia - Eurosport Best Civilian Jet - R/C Jet Models- Scott Harris- L1011 Best Ducted Fan - River City RC- Dr. Barry Grove-F-15 Peoples Choice ZAP- Glue-Boli Muentes-F-15, and Lightning Pilots Choice JPO-Pablo Fernandez- F-4 - Fantastic flying with no broken rules!!!!

I'm sure they are all pleased with the fantastic flying, and pilots attending this event. Pilots were very professional in the way they went about following AMA rules, and cooperating with the event staff. It was the event of my lifetime, and we look forward to having them all back next year. We are now changing the name of the event. It will now be known as "Jets Over Kentucky Week". We will begin flying on Sunday July 5th, and conclude on Sunday July 12th. Come join us next year for a full week of flying in Kentucky.
