Default Tic, Toc, Tic, Toc!

Article written by: Maxon Duncan

This is the big one folks, and the clock's a tick'n! The 24th Annual Joe Nall Giant Scale Fly In is right around the corner, and in true GiantsStyle, the crew will be on scene with our new and long time friends having fun like never before! Model airplanes are sweet, but the personalities behind the scenes always steal the show! We will begin coverage of the year's biggest event starting on Wednesday the 17th, running throught the weekend. If the Internet bandwidth God's look favorably upon us, we will be pumping back live, streaming video back to the site much like we did with the E-TOC. Either way, our faithfull staff from Greenville will be uploading nightly videos for your viewing enjoyment. This year is going to be a BLAST! If you're going to be attending, please make sure to stop by Camp FlyingGiants for a cold beverage, and some great camaraderie! We'll be waitin' for ya!

Just a reminder. . "Brewski's". . and other non-non-alcoholic libations are strictly forbidden on the flightline side of the pits .. Kirby made it WELL known to me last year that such beverages are VERBOTEN in that area. . But, hey, with 100 acres behind the flightline, who needs to push boundaries, right?

See you all in a week or so.
