Two of them will be flying and one will be on static display.

John Gaither is heading up the R/C tent at the Indy Airshow this year.

Name
Phone Number
Email address
Club Affiliation
# of Adults (last year we could only give tickets to Adults. I’m assuming that hasn’t changed)
Airplanes you will bring (I’ll try to make 8 X 10 plane info or you could bring your own!)
Can you bring a simulator?  Yes or No
What days will you be coming?  Sat and/or Sun
Can you help setup on Friday afternoon or Saturday morning?
Can you help tear down on Sunday Evening?

Here are some pictures of the V22 landing.  This particular one is slated to go to Iraq this fall.

Cool pix!!!  Smiley

Glad to see you got a picture of the stuff I work on - controls & displays.
I can't believe they're using the Track Handle as a book bag holder!

Speaking of Mt. Comfort...

How many were turned away at the gate Saturday morning, as they tried to get to the R/C tent to unload their planes for display.

I know of one particular individual that decided to go rather than try to lug his planes all the way from the parking lot.

I'm sure this couldn't have helped our presence at the tent.

You must work at Raytheon?  We should chat sometime about our work as I'm sure we have some common issues...

That must be the same V-22 I saw at Greenwood Municipal and Columbus Municipal. I heard another guy next to me say that it had that number 21 on the side, which I can see on both sets of pictures.
