A very nice Wild Hare Edge 540 that looked great in the air

   
 
   
 
   
 

We had no idea Troy Hamm had so many great airplanes. A favorite from the show included this beautiful Extra 330S

   
 
   
 
   
 

The plane rarely flew up-right, it was always in some unique 3-D attitude

   
 
   
 
   
 

Troy Hamm hovering the airplane so close we could nearly read every decal on the plane! Also landing 

   
 
   
 
   
 

Troy Hamm concentrating on flying one of his nice airplanes, possibly his big Katana S 

   
 
   
 
   
 

Troy Hamm's Katana S

   
 
   
 
   
 

We enjoyed the company of the Rex family and young Seth Peters. Brandon showed that he is an incredible pilot with his Great Planes Big Stick, his J-3 Cub and he also has a new Matt Chapman CAP 580!

   
 
   
 
   
 

Brandon Rex was able to bring a total of four airplanes to the event - good thing he's so skinny or he wouldn't fit in the vehicle. He has done his GWS Slow Stick in a "Dukes Of Hazard" color scheme. 

   
 
   
 
   
 

The pilot of the giant J-3 Cub and (we believe) his daughter. Dave McD helped out with getting the engine running correctly

   
 
   
 
   
 

The big J-3 Cub comes in for a dead-stick landing (one of several) and even though it ended up in the tall grass there was no damage, just an exciting moment of drama. Also pictured is an incredible electric-powered profile YAK

   
 
   
 
   
 

This profile plane was expertly piloted all day after recharging the batteries. Yes! It is electric, but flew as like it was missile-powered

   
 
   
 
   
 

The same pilot of the electric YAK also showed his talent piloting his 4-stroke powered profile Katana

   
 
   
 
   
 

This little Sig Kadet was a wolf in sheep's clothing. It was powered by a brushless electric motor that made it do all kinds of stunts that you don't normally see a Kadet do! A beautiful Ultimate heads out to the runway.

   
 
   
 
   
 

The Ultimate lifting off the runway. Beautiful covering. Pilot's doing what they do best - talking! Plus Dave McDonald's BAD BOY

   
 
   
 
   
 

Dave McD was dragging the tail through the grass when the plane unexpectedly landed! Oops! Only a broken prop
