Default Fly'n with the Circus. RDRC's traveling Circus

OK guys, here tizzzzzzz. RDRC's Traveling Circus want to share some of the fun we have on the week ends, and show the world how much fun we have visiting the many fly in's across North Caroline and neighboring states. It's not uncommon for us to send 8 to 10 trailer loads of planes on even given week end, to support fellow clubs, and put on a good show. Our club averages 130 members a year, and 10 to 15 of us get together every Saturday morning, grab a bite to eat, and hit the road in convoy. We have an awesome time doing it, and just thouight we'd share the fun with all of you. So grab a glass of tea, kick back in your chair, and travel along with us through the Flying Giants. We think you'll have a fun time, and we promise LOTS of crash pics as a bonus!

OK Circus,,,,,,,,,start posting!

Lots of hardcore huckin today at RDRC. These are some after pics of "Steve-O" and his WH Edge. Steve-O just got a 100cc sukhoi so he was really pushin the envelope with his 50cc edge, multiple tq rolls on the deck and then this happens in spactacular fashion, and he almost had it saved.

Steve-o, I thought it was the bee sting and snake bite that you got at the same time that put it in :-) . Man, that bird went in fine style!
