Default yyyyeeEEEEEHHHHHAAAAAAAAA!! TUCSON!!!!

Okay, so most of you guys have seen our FG TV. It's not always pretty, there will be inane prattle and camera over zooming, BUT IT WILL BE BADASS!!!!!

We're taking the latest gadgetry MadMax could get without military clearance. So far tons of FG members are planning on making the trip! As you guys know, we get EVERYONE on camera. If you're planning on being in Tucson tell all your buds to be watching as we'll be doing a new gig called "GIANT SHOUT OUTS TO MY SLACKER FLYING BUDDIES WHO WERE TO LAZY TO MAKE IT TO THIS EVENT!!" Between rounds we'll be interviewing anyone who wishes to be on TV.

So what else would you guys like to see? The International Boat Race? Me shaving MadMAx's eyebrows off? Fun with a permanent marker? Sleeping man meets air horn? Pranks featuring the Western Diamond back rattlers? Scorpions in the sleeping bag? RV Trick or Treating with a black ski masks/ warm up suits, with a realistic squirt guns? Give us some some suggestions!

We've had a couple requests that we need to just say no to. Here are some things we can't do;

Submitted by Redneck Shawn "Take a 12 gauge and some blanks,,,,,." I didn't even read past that part of Shawn's suggestion. Sorry bro, it's not really a "shootout" like with guns.


Submitted by Pale Rider VA. " When you first get to Tucson, leave the mayonnaise and smoked chicken open and on the roof of the coach. When MadMax wants a snack, offer to make chicken salad. Imagine the hours of fun we could have as the bathroom cam records the wretching and hurling,,,,," Sorry bro, we've pulled that one before. There's a fine line between some yakking/ diarrhea and REAL hospital time. Only trained doctors and medical technicians should pull that beloved stunt. Although come to think of it, we haven't REALLY put Boulder to the test!! Any medical types out there? How much salmonella/botulism is enough? I mean too much.


Submitted by Shortbus. " Say poo-poo on the TV!!! That would be SO funny!!!!" Uuuuhm, hmmm, why?


Submitted by Kiwi "Mite, tike a bloody tinny from the iggy and trough a binny on the tucka!" Uhhhh, sorry Kiwi, we have no idea what that means. Dude you even write with an accent!


Submitted by Ryan Smith " Dude, what if all the Flying Giants members got an ear ring like the one I have in my inner ear? It's SO cool!!!!" Ahhh, no.


Submitted by Howie from down unda " How about take it easy on us ? " Simply put, NO!


So let's hear from you guys!!! What would you like to see that doesn't suck? THIS IS GOING TO ROCK!!!!!

Personally I would LOVE to see every single person at the TAS in some FG gear!!
Stickers everywhere, hats shirts... and perhaps some "modifies" t-shirts on a few (over 18) purty ladies!! (Modifications done in a tacky yet tasteful manner!! )

Also.... I would like to see the BOAT RACE!!!

I want to see that Mad Max levitation trick again... you know, where Tony sneaks into his bedroom, lights up an air horn, and Max levitates up off the bed and hangs there for about 30 secs...

Well Duh....As usual I completly missed the meaning....If you would have read farther you would have seen where I wanted a video of Max being woke up by a Redneck alarm clock, that shotgun with blanks would have got the job done just fine. .

I think this should be known as the 2006 TAS. The shootout of MANY Flying Giants practical jokes!!!!!

Maybe a Remote Control rattler tail in the sleeping bag of Zak West? He needs to be picked on.

Oh there is also going to be a half pint coon azz by the name of Ryan Gonsoulin. Rumor is that he's shorter the Tonny Russo?? Heck of a nice guy and a great pilot though.


What ever ya'll do be sure the video is on.We'll be here glued to the monitor...
I hope by the end of the contest every RC pilot there will be afraid to go to sleep for fear of the "FG CAMERA CREW".....................LOL.....
