2009 Bluegrass Jet Jam
Hey Guys,
Just wanted to get the thread started up here for the 4th Annual Bluegrass Jet Jam to be hosted by the Southern Kentucky Model Aero Club. As with previous years we will keep the thread updated with any info and questions regarding the meet. Over the years I think we have built a solid "down home" style meet that has had you guys who have attended in the past leaving with smiles on your face. This year will only continue to grow on that principle and we hope to see you here.
FACILITY / EVENT INFO:
800x50ft Paved Runway, now with smooth run off transitions, run offs are also in great condition.
Great over fly area

$50.00 - On-Site Registration
FLYING TIMES:
Scheduled Flying: 8am-5pm (impound for 72, open for 2.4)
Open Flying: Dawn til' Dusk (Frequency Board) Don't forget about your night time flyers aswell, because if you have ever been to the BGJJ you know the meet doesn't end just because the sun goes down!
Flying Site Open & Available all week for early arrivals.

BAYMONT INN: 270-843-3200

RE: 2009 Bluegrass Jet Jam
Just wanted to send out a personal thanks for all the guys last year who took the time to personally sign the BGJJ shirts for myself and our other member and friend Joe Grimes. It was hard missing the event but atleast with RCU we were able to see the pictures each day after they were uploaded. Trust me, I would have much rather been flying my hot rod flash than the slow snail I was pushing thru the air overseas, haha...

I'm assuming you're talking with Mike G.
He should be able to help. If you guys can't get together, give me a call. We can take care of it in Nashville.

Team Velox is bringing it. Justin...I assume that slow snail you are referring to is that of Kirby's....
Who is that sexy guy in the white and blue shirt in the picture??? He looks like an excellent corn hole player!!!!
If AMT can get our motors back within 3 months we should have team Velox pieced back together!!! HMMMMMMMM.
