Wow! What a great Joe Nall event. I've been to it for many years now and all I can say is that this one was the best! And FG folks were everywhere! I enjoyed seeing all my RC friends and meeting so many new ones. We'll see you next year.

I snapped a few pics (mostly on the 3D line) that I posted starting here.

Very nice pictures, tho. Wish I was there.
The pics of the DA guys was them going through the pits and updating the pistons on everyone's 170's that needed updating. They were spending close to an hour per plane in the hot sun so everyone could have the most current mods without sending them in. If that isn't customer service, I don't know what is. On top of that, these guys are a blast to be around

The pic on the shirt was something staged I took for fun, just us screwing around. 99% of the pit beotching involves assembling/disassembling/fueling/cleaning/etc the 4 or 5 monsters Snap brings to these events. That is a full time job in itself

As far as the mushroom goes, show up to an event. Snap will show you exactly what it is for

Great job Craig. Here are a few more pictures that I took. Hovering above lake Snapasaurus and others. Many thanks to Pat Hartness and all the volunteers who once again have brought us all together to the most special event in RC modeling.

I recently organized my pit beotches, there are those in charge of assembling disassembling, others are in charge of repairs, I have the beotches that drill props, the Ones that do the upgrades on my 170's, the Ones that go swimming after my planes etc.., you get the idea and now I have the Ones that post for me here on FG.
The Joe Nall was this year best ever for everyone, we had a great time as always, I have nothing but but good memories, I love this hobby more than ever thanks to everyone that makes such a nice event happen, from Patt Hartness to the local club to all the volunteers and the pilots themselves, looking forward to attend more events this year

And coffee hour the following day.

I had a blast, by the way. Great to hang and fly with a bunch of really cool people.
