Default FL Jets 2016 / Red Flag Event Coverage

Is there anyone going to cover FL Jets and post some photos?

I can't believe that no one has posted photos from the Red Flag event that ends today

I have not been able to find much of anything other than scores. pics of planes, equipment used by competitors etc would be great.

I'm headed down tomorrow to cover for Fly RC, I'll post some pictures here.

I couldn't get the rest of the time off or I would have had to skip Joe Nall (so many events, so few vacation days)

Don't complain too much, you at least get to go to the event! Think about all of us poor slobs who can't go for various reasons, work being primary for me!

Everyone uses Facebook now, pretty much instead of RCU for event coverage. My Facebook threads are full of pics and videos from buddies attending.

Thanks for posting those Andy. Any information on the Lightning jet? It's an interesting and unusual jet you don't see very often.

Thanks,

Craig

Great pics Andy, thanks for sharing. Like it or not people, FB is awesome for our hobby. All day long you get info and pics/video about our toys from all over the world. My core group of friends I fly with aren't on FB, I repeatedly tell them to join so they can see all this cool stuff. Just getting to watch Phil Noel post stuff is worth signing up! It's pretty slick to share pics of your kids with grandma and grandpa too ;-)

Haha, yea I know! Facebook is getting as bad as RCU! Nope, last time I went to FL Jets was 2 years ago. I prefer attending some others. The guy that bought the 18 is a really good friend of mine. I hope he flies it a lot!

You guys enjoy!

Glad you guys are enjoying them.

I would say today was a better picture day. The good news is, I'm working on them now, the bad news is there's a hockey game on so I'm going to be distracted easliy
