I probably had the most fun I can remember at an event. I saw more people helping others than usual. The EDF and Jet guys REALLY worked well together. The flight line ran smooth and there was never any waiting or conflicts.

We flew all 4 Turbinators pictured. The little one on the left is EDF and the rest are turbine. Between a buddy that owned the red/white/blue ARF and I, we put 13 gallons of fuel thru them on Friday and Saturday. One of the flight line directors kept teasing us that we would need to send them in after the event for service we flew so much!

We passed the transmitters around and several pilots got to fly them all. Eight different pilots flew the red/white one (plans built) on the buddy box. Five of them had never flown a turbine before. Seeing the smiles on those faces after they landed made the event for me
