| Man, I am wore slap out…We had three days of almost none stop fun and action. Tons of awesome 3D and Big Bird action. Ron W. a.k.a. “Texas Snap” kept the action going well up until the wee hours of Sunday morning with night flying and foamy target shooting. Thanks Ron! What a blast! |

You don't owe me anything, but I hate you missed out on all the fun.
Alton did a very nice job on the photos. Glad to have you there Nick.
Hope Ya'll have as good of weather this weekend for your jet rally. You couldn't ask for any better than we had in Tyler for the Fly-in.

There were quite a few happy Extreme Flight owners at the event. Chris @ Extreme Flight is a great ambassador to the hobby. Everyone was very happy to have Extreme Flight as an Event Sponsor.Is this the Yak with all the Graphics you were referring to? ![]()

I've got around half of the pictures up in the Album. I'll get the rest online tonight. I also have a few short video clips. I'll work on getting them put together into a little video clip. Click here to see the album http://www.flyinggiants.com/gallery/...8&ppuser=10342

Hey Guys, Just had a chance to post. ![]() The T.U.F.F. Club Knows how to have a rocking good time for sure. ![]() ![]() ![]() Three thumbs up!Last time I was at the field in 06 for a big bird, I lost a Cap 232 and swore that I would never return because of all the stuck up BS that was happening with the Tyler club. But Since Charles Harris is a stand up kinda guy and then meeting Mark at my Dallas event, together they clued me in to the T.U.F.F way of running a club, I was quickly impressed It is very apparent that this club cares that modelers have a great time with some down home values. I am now a new member and plan to return every couple of months to do it all over again with a great bunch of guys. I have had a Monkey that has been with me for 4 years that travels to different events with me & is somewhat famous. We strap him to landing gears, take pictures of him getting in trouble, He's a good monkey~ he doesn't eat much but can be a hand full at times with all the antics he gets into. Monkey & I chatted Saturday afternoon because he was so depressed we would be leaving Sunday afternoon and I could tell he really wanted to stay because of this group of guys at the T.U.F.F club. Now with all the pilots and different events he's traveled to with me over the years. I had to stop and take notice of his tears. So at Dinner Saturday night at Ruddy's BBQ, the whole group was concerned why I was so distressed & finally I broke down and clued everyone in on Monkey's and my chat we had earlier. With all sorts of support and tears of both sadness and happiness we found a happy medium for Monkey. So I will remain Monkey's Daddy and Mark "littlecrankshaft" will be his mentor. and Sam will be Monkey's care taker and make sure he's well feed and continues to have a blast Mark, You do understand the he is cranky in the mornings and likes to pull on ladies skirts once in a while.So you have to keep him under control at times He's not the best flier, he just kinds hangs their but is willing to learn as with any child ![]() If you haven't seen him in a while he's probably in Sam's transmitter case or in the john. So with out further tears: Monkey's call sign is now T.U.F.F Monkey
