Default 2009 Joe Nall takes it to the next level!

For anyone that has never been to a "Joe Nall" at the Triple Tree Aerodrome in Woodruff South Carolina , let me try to explain the event and the location.

Use your mind and imagine what you think to be the perfect flying field. Got it?
Ok.. keep that thought in your head.
Now... imagine your dream field again, but this time imagine it ten times better. Imagine yards and yards of velvety soft putting green grass, wonderful camping facilities with real hot water and wonderful showers. Imagine real restrooms that are clean and well taken care of. Add to this image a beautiful lake, two gazebos, a WWII Flight Tower and ten thousand of the friendliest people you will ever meet. This is but a small taste of what Joe Nall and the Triple Tree Aerodrome is like.

Joe Nall is so special that pilots from all over the world take the yearly pilgrimage to these hallowed grounds. Some spend thousands of dollars shipping their models half-way around the world to spend a week in the sun flying and celebrating RC flight. Historically the Joe Nall has been known as a solely Giant Scale Aircraft fly-in.

UNTIL NOW.

(I am SO excited to announce this!)

This year, Triple Tree in association with Crackroll.com is opening up the Joe Nall to HELICOPTERS!

(Just in case the guys in the back didn't hear me....)
THIS YEAR, TRIPLE TREE IN ASSOCIATION WITH CRACKROLL.COM IS OPENING UP THE JOE NALL TO HELICOPTERS!!!

3D, Sport, Scale, Electric, Glow, Gas bring them all!

The grounds at Triple Tree are huge and the staff at Triple Tree has reserved an entire flight line for Crackroll.com, and it will be known as the "Crackroll.com Heli flight line" . The CR flight line will consist of eight 200'x 200' flight boxes for all of you helicopter pilots to tear up the sky. (The Crackroll.com flight line must be 2.4ghz only so please keep this in mind)

The 3D airplane flight line is back in all it's glory in the same location as last year, (2.4ghz only as well) so I expect to see all of you Flyinggiants down there representing!

In total four flight lines will be operating full time. MAN, that is going to be a LOT of ACTION!

The official dates for "Joe Nall" this year are, May 13,14,15 and 16, 2009.

Will will be there all week... videoing, taking pictures and providing daily updates here on FG, so if you can't make the trip, fear not, we will keep you informed!

We will continue to update you guys with any new information as the event drawn near, so please check back often.

All of us here at Flyinggiants.com are very excited about this news, and would like to thank the Confederate Air Farce, Triple Tree Aerodrome, and Mr. Pat Hartness for allowing us to be a part of this historical event.

We will see ALL of you guys THERE!


Attached in the next post you will find the official announcement from Triple Tree, as well as pre-registration forms, and the liability waiver.

Also, if you have a company and would like to be a part of the "Joe Nall Vendors row", please email Mike LeTourneau .

Whats up with the "New Warbird Hour"?? Do warbird guys not like flying with other fellow flyers no matter what kind of airplane it is? I can uderstand them not to like flying with us down at the 3D flightline but up at the regular flight line??

I would think the War Bird hour is for the Warbird pilots to have a set time to fly together.
I think the big appeal of war birds is to see them in the air together, flying in squadrons.
I guess if your a simple person you didn't get that, but it makes sense to me.

Joe Nall is now complete.

The heli flight line is going to be between the uper flight line and the 3D flight line. Hard to believe these two flight lines are over a mile apart. Just perfect to throw in a couple hundred heli's.
