JR Indoor Electric Festival, Columbus Ohio Alex and Al made the Journey to Columbus on Saturday to partake in this event. Alex flew his new MX-2 foam model while I took pictures. We also met the designer of the MX-2, RJ Gritter. The MX-2 took first place at this years E-TOC (Toledo) while being flown by Seth Arnold. RJ, Seth, Jamie Hicks, Andrew Jesky, Nick Maxwell and many other premier pilots were at this event.

| Held October 7th through October 11th, 2009, Tucson Arizona. |
Tucson Aerobatic Shootout: This event drew the top RC Pilots from around the world for 5 days of intense
competition. With a $100,000 plus purse (money and prizes) at stake, it
is certainly the premier RC event in the US. I (Al) attended the
event Friday through Sunday and witnessed some extreme flying. Wednesday
through Sunday was IMAC style sequences. Saturday and Sunday also
had 3-sets of 4-minute freestyles... they were totally awesome!
I took almost 6000 pictures and am presenting them to you in three
groupings, one for each of the three days I was there. Fridays Pictures These pictures mostly display the event property and a number of planes and pilots. Saturdays and Sundays pictures will focus on 3D flying. Sundays pictures will also show the awards ceremonies. Saturdays Pictures The 4 minute freestyles start. This is totally awesome flying done low to the ground and to music.Sundays Pictures Freestyle pictures along with the awards ceremonies.
