Default Pictures for Q-500 Event Flyer

Hey guys,

I am looking for some good aerial shots of some quickies for our next event flyer. I have a nice one of my quickie rounding pylon 2 for the winter race flyer, but I need something else for the spring flyer. If anyone has some pics I could use for the background, please let me know! Here is a link to our fall race [link=http://www.imperialrcclub.com/pylon/pylon06Fall.html]Mulberry 500[/link], just for an idea of what we already have.

Thanks,

My Favorite.

Amazing to catch 3 165 mph planes in the same frame.

This was at Phoenix a couple years ago. I can't remember which Gary plane won the heat, I know it wasn't me.

Well, my green plane in that picture didn't make the return trip either, I can't remember for sure, but I think I midaired Helsel later that day and he was upset I knicked his prop.

That was a bad year for air around #3.

Great picture Dave, I love it when the racing is tight. I see why this is your favorite,... you are in the lead! If I use it for my flyer, do you want credit for the picture? By the way, are you going to be at the Tangerine this weekend?

Thanks again,

I did not take the picture (obviously) it was originally sent to my be Paul Herman, although I'm not sure he is the one who took the photograph. I will check, but will probably not hear back before I leave.

Yes, I have a 8am flight to Orlando for the Tangerine. Looking forward to it.

The picture was taken by Sean Dunnavant. He would appreciate it if you give him credit.

You can use this one if you would like an oil painting. I am in second place.

Great, I hope to see some of you guys there at the Tangerine. I will be there Saturday and Sunday in 424. Look for the wood wings with the red tips, Scorpions will be in the air....
