Joe Nall 2003: "100 years of flight"

SKS/PROPWASH VIDEO PRODUCTIONS

The 2003 Joe Nall "100 years of Flight" video by SKS/Propwash Video Productions is action-packed and will bring the Triple Tree Aerodrome right into your living room. From early morning until nightfall, the Joe Nall Fly-In is the "Oshkosh" of radio control. This year's event saw 540 registered pilots and more than 600 giant-scale masterpieces committing aviation on a grand scale. As is the norm for Joe Nail, the video showcases every kind of RC giant you can think of-from a scratch-built, 170-inch Avro Lancaster powered by four Zenoah G-23s to a very aerobatic turbine-powered Eurofighter jet; there's never a break in the action.

Narrated by Werner Kopp and Scott Stauffer, there are plenty of close-up details, flight action and interviews. In addition to the modeling activities, there is really awesome footage of three full-size airshow demonstrations! Aerobatic flights were flown by Matt Chapman in his CAP 232, Mike Mancuso in his Extra 300 and a formation aerobatic demo by four North American AT-6 Texans. With a run time of 110 minutes, this video brings you as close to being at the famous Joe Nall Giant Scale Fly-In as you can get without hopping on an airliner bound for Greenville, SC. Price is $19.95 (plus S&H). This tape is a keeper for sure!-Gerry Yarrish
