we flew down from clinton, ia just to hang with the huckers! what a blast. the field was awesome, the pilots were amazing and the hospitality was the best! we will trailer down the birds next year, assuming the buzz is correct and this is becoming annual.

side note, i was very pleased with the flight performances of all of the EF stuff down there. i had very little experience with chris' stuff prior to this weekend and i can definitely say that i am a buyer! his planes seem to be so light in the air.

all in all, this is a can't miss event! everyone involved did a tremendous job and really proved once again that our hobby is filled with the BEST people around!

Matt and I had a great time. We arrived on Friday just in time to join in the hucking. WALL TO WALL!!!

Awesome flying site!!! The members of GMA have obviously worked very hard to build one of the best flying sites around. Chris and the club really put on a great event. We will be back next year for sure!!!

What a GREAT time! Tons of pilots and lots of Southern Hospitality I want to thank Chris Hinson for having us down and to the shop, and having planes for us to fly. The new 100cc Yak is one AWESOME plane and I am counting the days until I get mine! Same with the 50cc Extra...what great planes!
It was good seeing people we dont see much and Saturday night was a freakin' blast....It was definately worth the trip down, and next year will be even better ( if it could get any better ).
Make a note to get down next year, because its worth the trip.

Here is a few pictures of Max thinking about his next cutting edge media coverage of this Awesome Event!. All seriousness.........Max you Rock! The Flying Giants - Extreme Flight Hucktoberfest is by far the most "Huck-tacular" event I have ever been too. Chris Hinson and the GMARC really threw one bodacious PARTY! Got to see some friends I haven't seen in a while, and made a bunch of new ones. It was especially nice to put friendly faces to go with all the FG handles!

Great Job Flying Giants and Extreme Flight RC! I will definitley be there next year!
