We were able to fly our smaller aircraft in the evening and Friday night was beautiful - cool, calm and crystal clear sky. We even chased each other around with our Roadkill Camel and Dr.I Triplane. Lots of LARGE aircraft were there and many of them flew. They even had pyrotechnics set up to simulate bombing/strafing runs during the show. Their field is probably 1000' feet long and nearly as wide as our runway is long! Check out some of the photos I took of the aircraft in the following photo gallery: http://www.indyrcsouth.org/gallery/thumbnails.php?album=30 (http://www.indyrcsouth.org/gallery/thumbnails.php?album=30) I will definitely be going back!
