Status: offline Hello All,
I’d like to tell you about a new event I am working on. I don’t have the “perfect” name for it but so far it’s looking
something like, “Monster Planes South”. The concept is to have a “Fly-In” for very large RC aircraft.
When I say Very Large, I talking about a minimum of 30 pounds and NO Maximum limit!
This event will have outside Insurance so we do not require an AMA Sanction. Therefore, NO Weight Restrictions!!
There will be a stringent Safety Inspection but I don’t see any other unusual procedures.
I have already secured a safe site here in Lakeland, Florida and have reserved it for three days in the last week of October, or the first week of November, 2008.
I am looking at STRONG awards in several categories, awards that will include Cash and a prestigious trophy.
I will announce the exact dates and who the Sponsors are in about 60 days. But for now, if anyone has a large model,
wants to show it off and fly with us, keep this event in mind.
One last thing, the event will cater strongly to War Birds, Jets included, but will welcome any large civilian aircraft,
with One Exception. We are not looking for any 3D type Aerobatic models, regardless of how big they are. We prefer
real “scale” models. We are expecting a minimum of 40 vendors / manufacturers.
If there is any confusion about your model, I am happy to speak personally with anyone who feels like calling me
at 863-607-6611, or emailing me at
[email protected]
Thanks,
Frank

This is taken from a post at RCU. I think this would work very well if handled right. I have no doubt that Frank will pull it off and handle it properly.I like it.
