What a bunch of wimps! I put together a nice entertaining event
and you all PPP all over it. Come on you can do better than that!

It's support we want. I challenge you all to step up and become
a part of the solution. Other club's may sneak around and do their
maiden's alone but we're TEMAC and we do it better.

LOL

Jack.

Trouble maker!  ;D

O.K., in support of TEMAC, let's all get together for a First Crash.... I mean, First Flight Festival!

Question:  Why do people watch NASCAR?   Answer: Hoping to see a crash!

I sense a theme here  :o

Oh, and hey Ken!  We'll have a First Flight Fesival at the shoreline too  :)

I like Rob's idea of bringing all the 2013 planes to the fest.
How about we start with some pictures first..:)

I was thinking, since I was such a downer, I should offer my suggestion for an alternative.

How about we can still have a get together, but call it a New Plane Debut Event.  That way, those who'd like the "experts" to give their plane a once over before the test flight, and have the support during a test flight can do so, and those who'd rather test fly with a smaller audience can do that before the event, then bring out their new model to the event.

I think this would still be a great get together as it'll be one place and time when we can all see the new models at the field.

Yep Boring. We need crushed foam and splintered balsa to satisfy us!

Takeoffs are optional. Landings are mandatory.

About photos before a first flight. 

About 15 years ago a guy was maidening his kit-built Extra with a .90 slimer in it and I asked him if he wanted me to take a picture of it before the first flight.  He just looked up and said "no thanks". If it doesn't land in one piece I don't want a picture of it" 8).

A classic line.
