Our club held it's annual "Jets Miami Rally" this last weekend and had a great turnout, over 75 pilots and numerous manufacturers and representatives. It was a little breezy, but all the jets were large scale turbines so no problem.
I posted a few pictures below but these are all my jets and didn't get any photos of anyone else's (yah right). Actually didn't fly any of my electric jets with these big boys (even though I was invited to), but I couldn't take the chance that by some regularly occurring pilot error on my part, I might crash into one of these $30,000 babies and have to pay for it (I like living in my house too much instead of the street).
In three days and hundreds of flights, there were only 5 crashes that I'm aware of, and none were severe. Franco Di Mauro even put on an exhibition of 3D flying with his Bavarian Demon, one of 10 jets he brought.

But what did I get to eat today? The South Florida traditional fare, Lobster Enchilada. 
There are definitely perks living in Miami, not to mention the ability to fly 12 months of the year, assuming no hurricanes or high winds. 
keep all the great tips, pointers, advice and photos/videos coming, I love 'em! 
Finally got some halfway decent weather yesterday for the first time in 3 weeks (although an 8mph crosswind-but who's complaining) so I just had to get out one last time before the year ended. And I don't what anyone giving me 
about being able to fly 12 months a year in Florida while all you snow birds are only able to sit and stare at you're planes 
waiting for Spring-I used to live in Northern Michigan 
so I know the feeling. Took out an odd collection of my Stinger 90, Avanti, F-4 and a P2 Bi-Plane, which I hadn't flown in forever. Got 3 flights in on each before a load of other club members showed up with their fancy expensive turbines and dominated the flight line. We even got a visit from some crazy guy flying his home made ultra-light and he just had to land on our field and check out the action (photo below).
