Default Fly Eagle Jets

Attention: Route 66 Event Participants

Re: FlyEagle Jets Ban

In light of past and current incidentsconcerning the questionable safety of Fly Eagle Jets (FEJ) products, wecannot allow the safety of the 2014 Route 66 Jets event to be compromised. We must take every reasonable measure to ensure the safety of ourspectators, our families, and ourselves.

Therefore, R-66 Jets must ban all FEJaircraft from flying at this year's event. We regret anyinconvenience this may cause some pilots. Hopefully those planning onattending have other aircraft you may be able to fly, and share an enjoyableweekend with us. Thank you for your understanding.

We thank you in advance for NOT hijackingthis thread for finger pointing or blame.

I have to say hats off the KingTech for some fantastic service. I sent my K170 out to Pasadena for some new bearings on August 21. It is on its way back to me yesterday via Fed Ex. It looks like I will have it back in time to reinstall it and make it to Route 66. I really want to try to make it down there with my 1/4 scale Panther. It is so no stress flying off of a full scale runway. Sebastian has one test flight on his Panther. Maybe he will bring it and we can get two 1/4 scalers in the air.
