Default Jet World Masters

Team USA has been determined for the eleventh Jet World Masters to be held at a privately owned airfield (Unterzeil) near Leutkirch, Germany August 23[SUP]rd[/SUP]-29[SUP]th[/SUP], 2015

Andy Andrews
Jason Bauer
Scott Harris
Jim McEwen
David Ribbe
Rod Snyder

I truly believe these pilots have the experience & ability to stand on the top tier at the awards ceremony.
All have been there several times as have most of the other Nations team members.
We will keep all posted from time to time as a Team Captain, Manager, etc. occur.

The Team has selected David Brawley (Goose) as the Team Manager.
We are very fortunate to have Goose as our go to guy for traveling logistics, crate/plane shipping, competition particulars, status reporting, on site Manager meetings/reporting, team uniforms, sponsors, budget status etc. etc. etc.......
Goose is also the Caller for Pilot Jim McEwen.
Thanks Goose for stepping up !
CU at Route 66 Jets for some schull sessions & good flying.....

The Team has selected Andy Andrews as the Team Captain.
We are again very fortunate to have Andy accept this responsibility as well as being one of the pilots.
I have no doubt that Johnnie will be supportive & take on some of the duties.
Andy will have further support as Pilot Jim McEwen will, again, be his Caller.

I am really delighted that this experienced team has come together to represent the USA at an International venue!

Working together as a TEAM will ensure our success!

Here are the shirts that Jet Team USA will be wearing at the opening ceremonies. The flight shirts will be similar but will include the last name on the back and logos of all sponsors.

Regards,

Jim

All,
If anyone is interested in a Team USA Supporter position contact Roger or David for the procedures. There's paperwork to complete, photo IDs and fees which must be submitted by a deadline. A Team Supporter badge will permit access to the facility along with the opportunity to participate in the various social functions of the event. It is well worth it if you plan to attend the 11th JWM in Germany next August.
Rgds,

All,
Just to clarify the USA Team Supporter position, this is a requirement of the event host- the International Jet Model Committee (IJMC). All the paperwork, photo ID and fees are submitted by Team USA to the IJMC as part of the registration process.

Team USA is also seeking direct sponsorship to assist with the expenses of sending this team to Germany and competing in the Jet World Masters (JWM). Monetary contributions at all levels are welcome and should be sent directly to the team. Again, contact Dave or Roger for details on sponsoring Team USA and/or applying for a Team Supporter position. Thse are separate entities, sorry for any confusion on this.
Rgds,

Hello Marc,

Yep we are in full swing on raising sponsorship dollars for the team. I believe several of us use your products. Please PM me a number to call you. As USA Team Captain, I have been tasked with the responsibility of coordinating the fund raising for the team. Art, please call Roger and get caught up on what is going on with the team.

Thanks,
Andy

Yes, a huge thank you to Barry and Kingtech for the support. Competing at the world level is an expensive endevour and we are most grateful to out sponsors for their support.

I'll be using a K-210 to power my Gripen.

Regards,

Jim

Hello,
A big thanks goes out to Ralle Schneider with
tailormadedecals. Tailormade has agreed to be a major sponsor to Jet Team USA. Tailormade dry transfers, paints and paint masks are the premier providers in Europe and and are making a big hit here in the United States too! Most of our team will be using them for their JWM aircraft.

TailorMade decals were used on my JWM competion Sabre and helped me to achieve a high static score. Ralle and his staff are EXTREMELY easy to work with and VERY knowledgable. They can help you get the proper documentation and scale effect you are looking for. They have an extensive library of Jet themes to choose from and they will gladly create custom graphics to match your needs.

Lastely, they offer new aluminum paint that has the appearance of real aluminum. I plan on using this on my F-89 project for the JWM.

Ralle, many thanks for sponsoring our team for JWM 2015!!

Many thanks to Danny Melnik of http://www.DemonAero.com for his generosity in sponsoring Jet Team USA.

DemonAero is the US Distributor of Bavarian Demon gyros including the much loved Cortex gyro which will be installed in team aircraft. DemonAero also distributes Xnova electric motors, DryFluid lubricants, and RMQ Products.

For those of you who haven't tried a Cortex gyro, go for it; they are game-changers for sure.



Thank you very much Danny!

Regards,

Jim

Big thanks go out to Marc Scully with GBR-JET http://www.gbr-jet.com/ for sponsoring Jet Team USA with CAT products for your jets.

The GBRJET CAT is a composite air trap specifically designed for use in RC jet powered aircraft. It is hand made from high quality materials and fully tested to 40psi before dispatch.

The CAT has been shipped all over the world and even NASA are using them in the X48C project feeding two AMT Titan turbines .

Available in 4 versions to suit all turbine thrusts each CAT comes supplied with a simple and secure mounting bracket to make installation a simple job. Used by top pilots worldwide.
