The
"Best Military Jet" award was deservingly awarded to
Frank Alvarez's Skymaster Hawk in the Mclaren scheme.
The beautiful aircraft, loaded down with external
stores, flew perfectly with its 160 size turbine engine.
Everybody stopped to watch Frank fly it. |

watered on Saturday caused this view of our tent area. |

This "Down Time" allowed
Dustin to check out Bob Tursack's new Skymaster T-33 for
proper electronic programming, balance, systems function
etc. The model was flown on Sunday after the
official event flying was complete. One click of
trim! |

their show efforts for many years. JetCat P-160

Chris Trump from Quebec,
Canada has been perfecting this BVM F-4 with P-120 power
for a few years and it shows in his superb flight and
static presentation. |
Chris also flies this early
Addressor III with an EVF ~2~ 12s and it really
performs. Great paint work as always from Chris. |

teamwork. |

Boyer and Mike Lesher assisted Erik Rudjord in the "Hard
