RE: 2010 Liberty Bell Jet Rally
Mike and entire LBJR crew,
Thanks for all your hard work for organizing and running such a great event. The weather was fantastic and I had a great time seeing old and new friends. I really look forward to these jet events. I am finally having a lot of fun flying my little sport jet and I was really honored to receive the best sport jet award. Thanks again, and I look forward to LBJR 2011!

Dear Mike, Cindy and the Liberty Bell Jet Rally Crew!
You guys have worked very hard for many years to build a great jet event and as always you never dissapoint!! It was great to see your team again and fly with old friends on the flight line at Donegal Springs Airport. And Mike, I forgot to complement you on your outstanding F-4. Can't wait to see you fly it! Thanks again for hosting the 2010 LBJR!
See you soon!

RE: 2010 Liberty Bell Jet Rally
Thanks to Mike and the crew for four great days of jet flying. Having been a spectator for many years this was my first time as a participant and I was very impressed with the piloting skills of many flyers particularly my friend Ron Stahl. Ron flew my seriously no ridiculously tail heavy Reaction on it's maiden flight and brought it back to mother earth in one piece. Ron's abilities and expirence with a vast selection of different aircraft including UAVs turned what would have been a disaster in my fieble hands into a salvagable test flight. Thank you my friend. Ron maidend the first RC plane I ever built and many more since then but wouldn't you know the one plane I botch the set up on would be the most expensive one. So if anyone witnessed our flight don't blame Ron, I would put him right up there with Lewis on the save of the day pedestal.
Thanks again to everyone
Bob

Cindy, Mike and the rest of the LBJR crew, thanks once again for an outstanding event. It had to be one of the best yet. No, it was the best yet, as it just gets better and better each year.
And the weather this year. Wow! Dang near perfect. ;-)
Thank you very much for the special recognition award. That pretty much made my year. Most unexpected and very humbly received.
See you soon!

RE: 2010 Liberty Bell Jet Rally
Bob your welcome and those are nice words. So everyone knows the only thing I didn't check myself was the CG balance before I flew Bob's plane. There have been 5 reactions in our group and one of the guys changed the fore and aft balance with Bob and told me it was right where mine was, when they were done. Well he was way wrong! Thank goodness we set triple rate elevator rates for the flight as it was "Three bears beds" kind of flight one rate was too much, the second was not enough, and the thrid was just right until we lowered the flaps and I needed more down elevator throw to set a glide slope. When I switched to the higher rates I had way to much up throw and not enough down to hold it level for some reason. I landed a little off the runway in the grass with just a set of bent main gear legs. We will set it up to my settings which we would have done, but I didn't bring mine to the event.
