Hats off to Jamie and the flying tiger club. This event was not on my radar screen but after seeing and flying at this first class operation, I will be back. Had a great time. This is a pilot event, relaxed, great facility and all the flying you could handle. I loved the rv set up on the flight with 30amp power. Couldnt be any closer. Just wish I lived closer. See you again, Jamie and the flying tiger rc crew.
