Look forward to seeing pics or vid of your flight today George. Congrats man! It is quite an accomplishment. My little Nathan was over 275 days and then forgot to fly one day so he has learned the lesson of having to start over. It tore him up but emphasized a sometimes difficult life lesson. Enoch is still going strong at 269 days.

Google maps shows it as about a 1900 mile drive from Tucson, though, so not exactly a quick trip. The closest I've managed to a visit to Tennessee so far, is a short layover at the Nashville airport, on a flight from Louisville, Ky., headed back to Tucson through a connection in Dallas. We would love to get out there, though. Loads of beautiful country through there.

Impressive milestone, TI... Congrats!! :Cool:
I got some stick time myself this mornin'. Few good flights with Woodstock. JuneBug flew like a dream as well... and then. I attempted the use of flaps, for my first time, and brought 'er in a bit too low on the power. Nothing bad, really, just tipped the nose enough to clip the prop. Lesson learnt... :Whew:

Last year @ NEFI 2018, George's attendance at that event for the first time is when the AMA acknowledged his accomplishment of hitting the 700 mark.
Here's a post from George's right hand man Steve (RCJetDude) during that event about that accomplishment.
The AMA also did a little feature about what appears to be a record setting journey for George but my chemobrain won't let me remember what issue of the Model Aviation magazine.Warbird Charlie
