Geez, you'd better figure something else out, cause this event is co-hosted by the man who made the Yak a household name, Mr. Chris Hinson of Extreme Flight RC!

From the "celebration to Chris" standpoint.. I'm all in! He has some terriffic products, great support and just all around, one heck of a guy. I've had a couple of his planes, and rarely hear from anyone who isn't happy with them. I guess we'll see some of his new extras and other "secrets"... maybe the one only rarely seen up at GMA!

From a "whazzup in the flying world" standpoint, I'd love to see some other equipment out there. I'll definately be there, maybe just as a spectator, enjoying what you guys that know what your doing can do with a plane... that's one of the fun things about this hobby, its just as fun to watch someone fly as it is to control one.. well, almost!

I hate to say it but I know of one Yak that will be there if it makes it that long. I will be there with my 110" EF Yak and will have the EF Extra there for backup. If I need a change I will jump over to the WH Ultimate and try two wings.......OH YEAH. I CANT WAIT.

Same format as last year-only bigger! Huge raffle prizes, best BBQ around, great music and of course 3 full days of down and dirty, tail draggin', grass cuttin', rudder scrapin', smack talkin' HUCKIN'-southern style! Mark your calenders and book your rooms, this is THE event to attend in 2008!
I just made my room reservation. The Sun Suites in Cumming currently has a rate (at least a couple days ago) of $64.99/night. It's 12 miles from the field. Better get 'em while they're still cheap.

For your convenience...

Working on a deal right now to attend this. If it's half as fun as St Louis was I'm in for sure. Mark Trent and the people busted their butts to make that event a winner!

The field is in Cumming, Georgia, about 40 miles north of Atlanta. Here's a link to the club at the field... directions, etc..

They are sanding the grass strip this month, also doing some improvements to the asphault strip where it transitions to the grass strip... should be in great shape in October.
