GIMLI MODEL FEST 2008
SPECTATOR COMMENTS!

Frank:
"Howdy
Helen and i would just like to thank you for a GREAT THREE DAYS OF FLYING.
IT WAS THE BEST WE HAVE EVER BEEN TO.
Again your crew out did your selves.
Again thank you!"

Darrell:
"Once again, your members have pulled off a fabulous model airshow!

I was impressed last year, and this year was no different. Having the professional announcer there really makes the airshow...

Everyone really lucked out with great flying and spectator weather, 2 years in a row...

The only thing missing really was WW2 bombers in a flyby with the fighters. (hint, hint, for next year)

Awesome job guys and gals! I can hardly wait for next year."

Peter:
"Greetings all
A really big thank you and a job well-done to the entire gang of volunteers who created a great weekend for all us visitor types. If one checks the definition of the word perfect they would read - see Gimli Model Fest."

Bill:
"Great job, Joan & I had a great time.
Looking forward to next year.
Thanks a bunch for all your time and effort.
It is apreciated by all.
Thanks again.
"

Al:
"Hey guys,

Just a quick note to thank you for a spectacular RC weekend. You obviously did your homework as the Airshow was well run and safe with a good variety of events and multiple disciplines and went off without a hitch at least, as far as I could see.
Every comment I overheard in the spectator gallery was positive.
Again thanks for a memorable event."

Joe:
"Great weekend! Great people! and lots of great planes both on display and in the air...looking forward to next year already."

Gina:
"I had the chance to enjoy the better part of the day on Saturday during your practice time. I must say that I was impressed by what was going on around me. Not only was I taking in the model flights but also tow planes, gliders and parachuters......what an awsome site. This event could not be held a better place. Hats off to you all!"

Randy:
"It's nice to see the warm comments from spectators who enjoyed the show. As a pilot, the event behind the scenes was top notch - very well organized and easy to participate in and enjoy. The organizers really deserve credit for providing such a wonderful and safe venue for us to fly in. Couldn't ask for more - well maybe some WWII heavy bombers in formation...;)"
