On September 26-28, Love Air RC will be hosting one of the nation's best warbirds events with

over 140 pilots and many, many great aircraft at Drake Field east of Ft Collins CO.

This event is especially designed especially for the warbird pilot. All aircraft must have been

used in the military and be in military paint schemes. Landing fee $25.00. Aircraft of any scale

are welcome including arfs. This means lots of open flying without interference from flying lawn

mowers or 3D planes. The noon pyro show will be even more spectacular and there are

openings for big bombers and fighters to participate.

The field is sporting $15,000 in infield improvements, in anticipation of the many pilots

scheduled to take part in the fly-in. The runway is 800 ft. x 70 ft wide, in case you are a first time

flyer at this event.

In excess of $12,000 dollars worth of R/C merchandise, most of it going to the pilots over the 3-

day event. Some items will be sold at auction during the Saturday night banquet.

Famous Dave’s BBQ will be the official field food vendor for 2008. Friday night there will be an

impromptu Famous Dave’s "Big Pig" dinner on the field; tickets are $15.00. The banquet on

Saturday night, is being provided by the Lory Student Union, at Colorado State University. The

sit down dinner features Prime Rib, with all the fixings, soft drink and dessert. Cost is $35 per

person. The banquet will be both entertaining and full of surprises. The guest speaker is a WW

II Ace who was one of the pilots in an unarmed B-17 at Pearl Harbor. Banquet tickets are

available on-line or at the field

Joe Thibodeau, the Reno Race Champion, is scheduled to fly by in his full size Sea Fury!
