Liberty Bell Pics
Since nothing has been started, I guess I'll get it rolling.
Thurs. was laid back with a few people enjoying the great weather and flying conditions.
Jorge E. and Mike L., Bob K. and Louie, Ron S. and MD crew, Robert V. working on his KC with Joe R & Carver looking on, A couple NY guys after a sortie, Uncle Bob and spotter as he flys the Electra, Jorge with Mike spotting as he is flying his twin EDF ME-262, Karen E. shot so many pics (hopefully we can see some). To finish out; Jorge's ME-262 & Bob's Electra.

I don't this guys name, but I believe he is from Canada and scratch built this A-10 with twin Wren 54s. I heard it is 96" but cannot be sure. It has good presence in the air and was flown in a very scale manner. With a couple Rabbits or M-90s, this would be the perfect combination. I'm not sure if this aircraft is planned for production, but it would make a very nice model if priced right.
A couple misc. shots.

Hey George,
Sorry I couldn't make it this year. I'm stuck in Leadville CO, still doing flight test.
Have fun while your back in the country. Next week I'm off to Yuma.

Eric Clapp and Jet Central, one of the major sponsors was there and had some new items along with there fine line of engines. The new Der Jet Cougar was on display and it didn't last long. Shortly after these shots were taken the plane was sold and off to its new owner. JC is offering a new sequencer/gear failsafe unit that sounds like a very nice unit, I may be trying one in my next project. They are also offering a new line of cockpits.

Nice pictures Guys, the A10 looked really good.
Friday's weather looked much like a typical day we have had in the U.K. this year.

1st Annual FOAMY WAR[>:]
This event was greatly received by the spectators and attendees and may become an annual event. There was a lot of damaged foam and laughs, everyone had a great time. Although 4 or 5 planes made it through the 5-min war, I'd say the glider was the overall winner taking out more aircraft and receiving more hits without going down. Get your weapons, uh I mean planes ready for next year!

Yes, Mike, that's a Dan Gill F-16 belly tank, holding about 50 oz smoke fluid on my R-54. Works great!
