Default 2009 Huckfest Series is over. Thanks JTEC!

Wow, the 2009 Flyinggiants.com Huckfest Series was off the fricking hook!
From the first show in Rockford IL, to the last in Atlanta, Ga the Huckfest series upheld it's title of being the most Extreme Bad Ass 3D fly-in series in the world!

I'm so happy to say that at all five Huckfests the level of respect for safety and the event grounds was very high while at the same time the flying was low and dirty! Once again the Huckfest series went off with out a single glitch! Thanks guys!

Now, as everyone knows JTEC/RADIOWAVE was the title sponsor of the 2009 Huckfest series. Well what does that mean? That means that they made it possible for FG to travel to all the shows to provide the coverage, the pics and videos and such. They made it possible to have fliers made and sent out all over the country.

So for this, I want to say THANK YOU. The Huckfest series was stellar this year, and it was in part to the sponsorship of JTEC/RADIOWAVE.

SO.. as I always say, REMEMBER who supports YOUR interests when your looking at a new ARF. If your in the market and you want a plane that will last, a plane that is built more like a kit than a standard ARF, check out www.jtecrc.com. Also don't forget, Al and Kevin make the best mufflers for ANYTHING, and they have a full line of EDF jets available as well.

Also, not that it really matters but, I own a 3.2M JTEC Extra 330. I bought this plane last year. I owned this plane before JTEC sponsored the Huckfest series, and if I have an "incident" with this plane, I'd happily call AL or Kevin and order another. It flys GREAT! And it's FRICKING HUGE!!


I'd also like to thank all the other sponsors who provided raffle prizes at all the shows.
Thank you for supporting us.

Default Re: 2009 Huckfest Series is over. Thanks JTEC!

Well you beat me to is Sleepy, I wanted to thank the Flying Giants and all those who made the Huckfest series possible, especially all those who attended the events. My dad and I had an absolutely great time attending the events and we really impressed with how well all of them were run. We were only able to attend 3 out of the 5 events but I know that the 2 that we did not attend went off just as well as the others. I want to thank each club and its staff that put on the events, they all deserve as much credit as we do.

Also we have to thank the other sponsors that made this event possible. Again with out the help of companies like Extreme Flight, Desert Aircraft, 3D hobby shops, Fox Engines, Vess Props, Hobbico, B&E Graphics, J & J tailwheels, Thunder Tiger, and White Rose engineering these events would not have been the same. A special thank you to Chris, Melissa, Curtis, and Blair of Extreme Flight for making us feel so welcome at the ATL Huckfest.

Sleepy the biggest thank you goes to you, you were able to organize 5 great events all over the U.S. and provide absolutely awesome coverage of each event.

JTEC Radiowave may not be the largest company in the R/C industry but for those 5 events everyone who took part made us feel like we were.

So Thank you to Everyone!!!!!

I attended two of the HuckFests this year and had a great time at both. All FG members are the best.

I want to send out a big "THANK YOU" to AL and Kevin Young at JTECH Radiowave for stepping up to be the title sponsors and help this all happen so we can gather and fly our hearts out.

I would also like to send another "THANK YOU" to all the other fine sponsors for their support of these events around the contry.

And to all the FG Memeber that I have met....... You guys make this event and hobby ROCK.
