voices... Those are the same ones who said buy 2 more helis... and the same ones right now saying buy a 90 ! Backed it in during the Demo flight... had lots of applause, that just egged me on further... Still came back after and flew the TREXION 600 like a raped ape... but smoooootthhhh.... Low backwards is starting to become my favorite... Low snakes to follow soon.. |

Max This year's event was a blast, and you better believe we will top it next year. Special Thanks to all of our sponsors that made it possible to throw an event like this... Hitec Multiplex, Air Wild, Gyro Hobbies, Desert Aircraft, Carden Aircraft, Horizon Hobby, El Toro Meats, Our very own Lake Traut with EFuel Hobbies, TryRc, Lucilles Barbecue and The Flying Giants. Max, MoMo, Toro and HeyDick were there spreading Giants swag, stickers, and videos. Air Wild's Demo Pilot Jeff Szueber put on an Amazing Show with his AW Extra 260!!! Thanks Guys and can't wait till the 2008 Memorial Day Fly In. Most of all let's not forget about the meaning of this holiday... Thanks to all who have served for this great nation, and that we will never forget our fallen brothers! Corey |

I had such a good time that today is the first day I am not too tired to get on the internet! such a fun time and the turn out was awesome! Max you and the Flying Giants crew were just a blast to have out there, Toro, you put on a show!!! Can't thank you guys enough for the donations and the demo and help you provided. The hat you gave me is the first hat I have ever liked and it fit my fat head perfect.I am looking forward for next year. Max any chance we can get you as an MC? ![]() You did an awesome job when you had the mic. The pics are great too. Really brought back some good memories. The raffle was a great one this year with the grand prize, an Airwild extra. I of course did not win a thing. But there were some happy campers that day! Ps. they dont call him Mad Max for nothing... He is a pyro!!!! ![]() Hope to see you guys soon, dont hesitate to come visit. Mike, |

I think I'm now just getting back to normal, if there is such a thing !!! What a time !! By the way, for those that are interested, Mark Eades from the O.C. Register did a story that will be in the Canyon News tomorrow and also did a piece for the O.C. Register website in the local section. Check out the link below for more pics (but nothing like yours Max) with a little video and audio. Anyway, certainly some moments to remember !!!

Who would want to miss any of your flying while looking through a camera? You put on a fantastic show. If anybody wants to see it they should show up at the pig roast next time and see it in real time.
