Hello Folks,

Come join us at the South Albany airport for " Capitol Jets IV".
To be held during the second weekend in July 2008.
The airport personel were very supportive and desire our presence yet again.
Our 2008 event will be further improved by the removal of most of the perimiter high trees that caused some concern last year. Furthermore, the management has continued with their airport enhancement upgrades that will make this location one of the finest in the northeast to conduct our jet activity. Please check our web page throughout the winter period as we continue to plan this event.

Regards,
Frank A Alvarez.

Cincinnati Jets 2008

We are in the process of organizing the first annual Cincinnati Jets event and the date for the event will be July 25-27 for the 2008 flying season. This will be a first time event and will be held at the privately owned Hook Field airport in Middletown, Ohio located just north of Cincinnati and we will be flying from the 50' x 6,000' taxiway. Kerosene is available at the end of the airport drive or you can buy Jet-A at the airport and we will have an 8,000 sq ft hanger available for overnight storage of our jets. There will be 9 or 10 hookups for RV's on-site.

There are several brand new hotels and practically any restaurant you can imagine all within 10 minutes of Hook field. For those who want to come early or for wives who would like to find something to do with the kids during the day there is the Beach water park and Kings Island amusement park both within 30 minutes from Hook field as well as a park with walking paths and a lake right across from the flying site.

We are still working on many of the details for the event and will post updates as we move forward. There will be several individuals involved in hosting the event besides myself and my wife Sandy, and all are jet pilots who regularly attend jet meets. In the next few weeks we will be able to provide additional information concerning contact information, hotels, etc.

We are all looking forward to our first annual event and hope that many of our friends will be able to attend...Thanks, Gary Jefferson

The Speedworld Desert Jet Storm in the Phoenix, Arizona area is scheduled for February 8, 9, and 10, 2008. We've made some nice improvements to the field since last year including more paved pit area. Hotels have been a bit of a challenge in availability and price since the Superbowl is here the prior weekend. We've found some rooms at the Hampton Inn and the Best Western Inn in Sun City. Mention SPEEDWORLD RACEWAY PARK when you make the reservations and you will get the following rates. Much better than the $170 that people were getting quoted.

Come enjoy the great Speedworld R/C Modelers flying site, hospitality and Phoenix weather.

Alan,

We are definately having Sin City Jets II. We were thinking about having it the first weekend in November again. Since we don't have any final plans, I am certainly open to any request for a time more convenient for you.
