KingCats showed up in numbers - here are some of
them. |
George Del Ray from Miami, Florida added some black trim
to dress up his orange/blue factory painted KingCat. The first flights were
successful. |
|
|
|
|
Steven and Dawn Ellzey kept this brilliant KingCat with
RAM 1000 power very active throughout the event.
|
|
|
The award winning "Kramer" KingCat is amply powered by
the new AMT AT-400. Francis Pischner and Larry Kramer traveled from south
Florida to enjoy the Mississippi sun. A stop at the Naval Air Museum in
Pensacola, Florida on the way home enhanced their trip. |
|
|
|
|
Rick Yelverton's, yet to be painted KingCat got airborne.
Scott Marr's saw lots of exercise. |
|
|
Jorge Escalona's KingCat received this attractive scheme
from the Kramer's paint shop. |
|
|
|
|
Famous for his low level knife edge fly-bys, Phil Nuza's
flaming Super Bandit with Pegasus power is extremely visible against any
combination of clouds. It's the contrast! Sal Cefalu and Phil make a good
team. |
|
|
Joey Tamez now flies a Super Bandit identical to Scott
Marr's, they even fly them in formation. The red and white scheme is simply
brilliant against the scattered white clouds. |

|
A Sabre
Trio Gordon Dickens, Dustin Buescher and Scott Harris put their BVM
Sabres in the same piece of sky multiple times during the event. Gordon's and
Dustin's use JetCat P-70 power while Scott's Sabre utilized an AMT AT-180
engine. (Great looking models - great flying.) |
|
|
Anytime a newly finished F-100 shows up, you can bet that
it is the center of the photo activity. This "Flite-Metal" covered example by
Scott Marr also logged its first 4 flights at the event. It flies as good as it
looks. |
|
|
|
|
Aerospace engineer, Richard Lugg truly enjoyed his
introduction to jet flying with this Bandit and some help from BVM Rep. Phil
Nuza. |
|
|
Dr. Tom Antlfinger enjoyed many flights on this JetCat
powered Bandit. |
|
|
|
|
The Duelling
Phantoms David Reid and Tim Redelman were a
prime feature of the "Scale Hour" with these time honored Rhino's. |
|
|
Dustin is now F-100 qualified after
his first ride with the BVM prototype - now 4 years old and over 200 flights.
It is powered by a JetCat P-120. The smoke is from another jet on its takeoff
roll. |
|
|
|
|
The perfect weather and flying site
allowed a busy flight line from early morning to dusk. |
|
|
BV calling for Dustin while he flies the BVM
F-100D. Thanks to Larry Hewitt for the
photo. |
|
|
This was the scene of the
noon-time lineup, as you can see, plenty of jets and spectators.
Thanks to Larry Hewitt for the
