Re: Something Fun for Joe Nall - aiming for 100 T-28's at once
When it is done processing on You Tube it will be available in HD. Much easier to see the little planes.

Re: Something Fun for Joe Nall - aiming for 100 T-28's at once
I was one of the last ones to land. After landing, looking around and seeing all the carnage was a sight! I can't believe I survived it! Can't wait for an opportunity to do that again.

Re: Something Fun for Joe Nall - aiming for 100 T-28's at once
I hate I missed it, but I will not be missing Fly For Tots and I think the goal should be 100, EVERYTHING IS BIGGER @ FLY FOR TOTS!
So where are the pics of the carnage

Re: Something Fun for Joe Nall - aiming for 100 T-28's at once
WOW! You guys pulled it off....BIG TIME! We had 72 Parkzone T-28's take flight together for the momumental "Operation Trojan Overcast" and 2009 Joe Nall. This represented the most of one type of airplane that has ever been flown together, anywhere! There were many cameras and much media coverage of this awesome RC "happening" and you'll be hearing all about it in the months to come. But, in the midst of all the action leading up to and during the flight, I managed to snap a few pics that I'll share here. We'd all love to see yours, too. BTW- "learnedinuk", your video is great and is getting a bunch of hits, I'm sure!
I applaud all you crazy guys (and Gal!) who joined in for the fun, the Joe Nall event organizers and pilots for enthusiastically accomodating it, and Horizon Hobby for recognizing your accomplishment with a Parkzone T-shirt. Oh, we'll do it even bigger and better next time. With a little more advanced thought and planning, there's no telling what we can accomplish together!

Re: Something Fun for Joe Nall - aiming for 100 T-28's at once
3 things...........
1. Thank God for 2.4ghz That would have never happened on 72mhz. It looked like so much fun. 2. Next time half the field should fly left to right and half the field fly right to left. 3. Would have been cool to tape one planes entire flight and/or have an onboard camera of a plane so you could see the traffic craziness!

I was down at the heli flight line while this was going on and it looked like a swarm of giant mosquitoes had invaded the field! Great job guys!!!
