Fixed income due to unforeseen medical problems. So sometimes things need to be moved around, and choices have to be made.

Anybody else needs some oil? I'll put your name down to make sure I don't run out. Show special $40 a gallon.

Please also look into our new G2 K-120 and 160 in the auction.

Thanks Joe and Nancy - also the BARKS crew, the Aussies had a blast.

Also a massive big thank you to all the Horizon Team guys for all their help and comraderie over the past few days. As a Futaba guy it was enormously disappointing not to have some support and product promotion available. It was clear why so many guys are using Spectrum DX18's - well done Peter and his team.

Cheers,

Jan

BITW 2016 is now over, I would like to thank all the pilots who have attended this year's show, Pilots who have traveled from many countries. All the Pilots from the US, we missed the Florida crew and some of the Cali crew and others around the US. I like to thank The BARKS Club for there work on getting the Airport ready for the show and for working the show. Dave Shoffner and Bill Short are the main reason we still have a place to fly and have BITW, we thank you very much.
To all the Sponsors who participated in one way or another, I can't thank you enough, These sponsors are what drive BITW and many US events around the Country:
Jet Central, Carf-Models, Elite Aerosports, Dr. Ken Wagner, Tam Jets, Frank Tiano Enterprises, Horizon Hobby, Tailored Pilots, KingTech USA, House of Balsa, Dreamworks Model Products, Jet Model Products ,PCH Hobbies, Kentucky Jets, Florida Jets, effluxRC, Zap Glue, Smart-Fly, Boomerang Jets, Super Dri Smoke Oil, Pure White Smoke Oil, BARKS Club, and to Ali Machinchy who really is a big part of BITW and Iam sure to the many other events he attends, his hard work helping pilots, setting up there radios, or test flying there jets and not to mention he puts my jets together and breaks them down when the show is over, thank you very much Ali.
The event was awesome and the weather was perfect.

Thank you all,
Joe C!
