Default Super Jets South, just like being there

Georgia Jets has wireless internet access available at the field via satellite. For those not able to attend the event this week, we will be uploading pictures and commentary as the action happens. We are going to try something unique for this event as we will monitor RC Universe during the day. If you can't attend and want to comment about the activities, want more information or clarification about something you see, want to see more pictures of a particular plane or flight shots, just post here and we'll do our best to accomodate.

That is too cool. Real time coverage. It would be nice if the moderator would make this a sticky during the event.

How about a real time video feed with live viewer interaction? That would make it unique.

Here's a link to the webcams:

They refresh once a minute - not realtime but pretty darn good!! The bandwidth needed to do realtime is brutal...

No its was not a bobcat it was a kingcat. Engine flameout and not enough speed to make it back.
The plane was recovered with very little damage.

Hi, great event, I really enjoyed it today, the concession stand folks did a great job. The Coors light BD-5 was the best.
