RE: FREE**ROUTE 66 JETS 7TH ANNUAL
Although it was my first time to R66, this is one of the friendliest jet events to attend. I have got to know quite a few new people. Roger does a good job at welcoming new folks.
Thanks for posting pictures guys. I was so focused on doing the maiden flight on the SM Hawk that I forgot my camera. I was worried I wouldn't have any pictures of it.

You did a great job on the maiden flight and subsequent flights on the Hawk. Man that SM Hawk looks EXCELLENT! And you flew it very scale. Perfect take offs, scale turns, perfect landings. Nice job man!!

RE: FREE**ROUTE 66 JETS 7TH ANNUAL
A COUPLE INTERESTING STATS......THERE WERE 46 REGISTERED PILOTS, 6 HAD 1 OR NO FLIGHTS FOR A VARIETY OF REASONS, THE 40 HAD 588 FLIGHTS.
MIKE MOLNAR & GOOSE WERE BOTH IN THE 5O SOME FLIGHT COUNT-TEAM ELECTRODYNAMICS HAD 49 FLIGHTS!!!
FLYING REALLY GOT STARTED BEFORE NOON ON THURSDAY; WE SHUT DOWN AT 5PM ON FRIDAY DUE TO RAIN, RESUMMED AT SUN UP ON SATURDAY UNTIL AFTER DARK & AGAIN AT SUN UP ON SUNDAY TIL 3PM.
THIS HAS IS PROBABLY A RECORD # FLIGHTS FOR THESEVEN ROUTE 66 JET EVENTS.
IT SHOULD ALSO BE NOTED, EVEN WITH THIS LARGE # OF FLIGHTS THERE WERE NO FATILITIES !!!
A SINCERE THANKS TO ONE AND ALL FOR AN ABSOLUTELY OUTSTANDING WEEKEND.
THE R-66 CLUB HAS BECOME SOME WHAT OF A FATERNITY.
ROGER & JIMBO + MANY R-66 CLUB MEMBERS GIVING A HELPING HAND

Roger and Jim,
It was my first Rt 66 and most likely not my last. I had a great time even though my homie Scott was off playing elsewhere. The L-39 was not cooperating early on but finally got the issue sorted out and got a few flights in with it. The shokjet was performing well as it always does. That thing is a blast to fly, although not much to look at.
I look forward to future visits to Rt66. You guys have it figured out as to what pilots want in an event. Keep up the excellent work.
And, thanks for the parting gift.
Randy
