The f-86 was spectacular, and I was fortunate enough to see it.
Was flying my non-jet, 1/4 scale 1934 Rearwin Speedster. |

I recommend that you put it on next year's calender. Here a couple of my favorite shots form the site.....'Don't know who shot them............ Tailwinds, John |
RE: One Eighth Air Force fly-in
We will be hosting this event again March 21 and 22, 2009. Then it will rotate to the AMA field for the next cycle.
John congrats on best Military flight award, it is well deserved. |
RE: One Eighth Air Force fly-in
Wayne,
Thanks for posting the vid. I had a great time out there with you guys. I got in 12 flights with the F-86 and managed to stay clear of the prop guys with your excellent spotting for me. With 70+ pilots attending and perfect weather the flight lines were always busy and having a good spotter was important. There were some really nice scale planes there and they all flew. V.. |
RE: One Eighth Air Force fly-in
You the man John, that landing was NICE!!

RE: One Eighth Air Force fly-in
Good job on the video Wayne. Good flying John & Vinnie.

RE: One Eighth Air Force fly-in

I would also like to thank all the jet guys that attended and flew, and flew, and flew, and flew. It was great to see and added alot to the event. Val |

Joe,
that shot looks like it was taken early sat am before the flying...either way Mr. Ron looks grumpy. He had to work hard to get the weekend pass from the Mrs i guess... [:o] V.. BTW This is why Ron looked grumpy... he just dropped it off at my office. |
RE: One Eighth Air Force fly-in

RE: One Eighth Air Force fly-in
Thanks Tony, Sean, Dan, Scale Dali! I guess having that gong on hanging there on standby makes me pay attention!
All in all, there was a lot of good flying going on last weekend..............Hardly any drama. Just many, many great looking scale models flown very well. I flew nine times on Saturday........I wish that I had spent more time cruising the pits to see all the cool stuff............................. Tailwinds, Joihn |
