Hello Diablo Kid

Thank you for the nice comments. The Camera is a Canon EOS Rebel Digital, with a 100-400 Image stablized Canon zoom (need it for the airplanes).
My Wife Jill is the Airpac photo person, I also took some of the shots. I'm sorry I did not get names up yet, it is too late here and im going to sleep. Many more photos to come.

Hello Jeremy

That would be cool if you could be here. The weather is wonderfull! Just like we never left home, LOL. Talk to you later Jeremy take care.

Kenny, Why don't you just fly there and get it over with, it will take you only, say about 20 hours.

It's 4:30 Am, I'm in Chicago, I'll be on a plane in two hours and at the field by 1 this afternoon. Can't wait. The Kingcat is Bob Covish, the pic below him is Greg Pulcini, both of TX. And two great guys I might add. I'm taking a wireless laptop and camera and such, so I should be able to add more pics of anything interesting this afternoon.

Have Fun Boys!

Get us lots of good pics guys!!! Mannn I wish I could have gone ,but couldn't step away from my business this year.I am definately planning to go next year,esp. now that a buddy of mine just bought a Cessna.

I assume there is full scale access so we can fly in next year? He doesnt fly RC but said he'd love to go down & check the jets out.I should have no problem safely packing 2-3 jets in his plane & joining the FJ fun next year!!!

Thanks, Ghost Rider, for designating this thread to those who wish to post FL Jet Pix/comments. I think everyone would appreciate it if you would do the same thing for each of the other jet rallies coming up this year. Thanks!!!

Well, I flew in without anything to fly, did pit crew work for Johnny on the F-18 all day long. This skymast F-18 on a P-120 is one of the fastest jets out there. The landings are amazing and Dave makes it look easy. This Skymaster jet is going to be a real contender. Having worked on a gear issue (all robart problem) all day, we only got two flights on it.

The real fun started around 6pm yesterday when I bought a Euro RTF. When we got to the hotel and got into party mode, that died down temporarily around 11pm and I stuffed a P-160 in the Euro. Finished the Euro around 1am and went with the boys to IHOP where we ran into a couple of "fine" local ladies.

Went to bed at 4am and am headed to the field soon. I love Florida Jets!!

For those that couldn't make it, WISH YOU WERE HERE!!

Wocket, feel free to interupt our fun with a cell call, you are missing some very hilarious "behind" the scenes fun!!

What's the deal with the flames out the rear end of that F-16 in the first photo?

[I've never seen THAT before ;-)]
