If you were not at the 08 XFC it was beyond description on the fun scale!! Now we can put pyro on the aircraft! Oh yeah there is word of a few extra points for scaring the earth worm population at the AMA site! Kodak moment from Thursday-Sunday afternoon! Not many places you can go and need a break from the fun.
Hats off to the AMA and XFC panel for forward thinking and allowing pilots be creative with the night fly. It will be the event of 09. Hell it will be the event of the decade! Looking forward to it. Now I need to google some fireworks rigs

All you have to do is spend a lot of money on fireworks, and break your plane at the beginning of the flight!!! What's so hard about that??? Right Terry??
