My Feedback: (57)
This is one thing we are lacking here in the states, if we had an event like this im sure all the models would sell like hot cakes. Would be awesome to walk into a place and buy it then walk out with it, hard to keep interested in jets with the process you go through to get one.
It was great to meet people from around the world that only can be done at a place like JP. Thanks to all who help put in the work to put on this show!!!

Hopefully you will find some pics from the show below, I have to agree with John I am not sure where this side of the sport is going,whilst it is nice to see these large models they are beyond the pockets of most not to mention the logistical problems of storage and transport. All in all we had a good day and the weather was mostly kind to us with just a couple of light showers. I was taken aback by the number of sport planes on view, they seem to be multiplying by the year and the market is likely to become quite saturated anytime soon. Edf retracting fan units are maturing with several on display in some astonishing sized gliders also being displayed on the flightline,impressive. there were a couple of new scale offerings shown and two in particular caught my eye, the Gnat from Scale composites in the UK and the little FFA P16 foamy from Ready2fly,different ends of the spectrum I know but they had originality on their side and there was not too much of that around.

I got back to the office 2am this morning, grabbed a few hours sleep and will start unloading soon. It was an interesting weekend, I went with the fear it could be the last one at that location, but happily it was confirmed that the event has been booked for next year. Several rumors had circulated before the event and I can understand where and how they started.
The flying returned to the earlier format with manufacturers slots and I much preferred it. We were lucky and shared a slot flying the Xcalibur's with Redwings who were perfect gentlemen and we worked well together in the 15 mins given.
I'll sum up thoughts more when I have had more than a couple of hours sleep. In Europe the manufacturers like the larger models, each one makes more money than several smaller models, but don't worry, there are new smaller sports jets being worked on and a few scale too.
Ripmax showed the new Mini Xcalibur for P-20-M35 type power.

I have just found some nice video of Sebastiano Silvestri flying the Avanti on the Friday show. It is really top class flying not sure many could do these manoeuvres.
