It is hard to believe this is the reception the "Circus" gets when we come to town.DSC_0104.jpg

!!!! IT'S JUST IN !!!!

Andy "Hoover" Thompson was reportedly spotted in the Rosewood area later this evening with what officials are now calling a "Hoover 'Round!" A closer investigation later uncovered that it was only Jon Gurley's T-REX 600!
!! NICE FLYING HOOVER !!

Dustin, I hope you post a bunch of the flight shots you took with that "grenade launcher" sized lens on your camera.

It looks like you guys had a great time at the field. Mike, I thought you were going to join us for the Morehead trip. This weekend is Goldsboro so you guys be sure to come and fly!

Overall a great weekend ! Despite getting some nerves early on due to putting the Chris-Cat foamy jet in the ground first thing, I enjoyed the Crystal Coast trip with the Circus. Thanks to Brandon, Chris and Dave for sharing the ride and room, and to "Team JR" Robert for saving the day with a spare receiver satellite !
