Flite Fest 2023 Full Recap! 

You are right about volunteering; that is one of the best parts of FliteFest. Working the build tents is one of the best places to volunteer.

Thank you Ben! Excellent everything!👍🏼👍🏼

Good to meet ya Ben!

Great video! Thanks for getting this out so quickly Ben! Great meeting you at the event🤜🏻🤛🏻

Sorry we missed it too. Great flying, great footage, and wonderful video.

Looked like a FUN Time!!!

So nice to see you and your family again this year. You are such an inspiration. 😊

Sorry we missed FF this year. A-26 is looking awesome! Love the retracts. C47 was an awesome project that entertained and educated all of us.

It was so great seeing you again in person! Much love brother, looking forward to next year already!

that was me in the back with yellow cargo pants and a white hoody. loved that bi plane looked so nice

Was great to make it back this year. What an awesome event!

What's amazing is during combat flights how few actually are hitting each other. All those planes and it is a hit here and there. Which is amazing how 2 planes only flying on the strip and somehow they manage to hit each other. The odds of that are actually pretty slim. Especially after seeing this many planes in the sky at once trying to hit each other. Just nuts and I bet incredible to participate in. Funny stuff.

Looking forward to my first one next year

You did a fantastic job building the A-26! We are looking forward to watching the first flight video later this year. Sad day to see the C-47 go in. It was great to finally meet you and your family in person. Flite Fest 2023 was amazing! Wish we had more time to spend there.

Children of today are pilots of tomorrow loved the mass launch nice one crack on and cant wait to see the A26

Well done Ben!

Aw, bummer. So sorry bout the big bird. Just kinda got to know her. Certainly understand your forward vision now, getting real about the lifetime of foam construction with giant models. Looking forward to your builds of whatever size 👍👍

When the C47 started the turn I saw the wings buckle and my heart sank. Also This year I hit the giant missile in combat and it was the best combat I have ever had

Fantastic, Ben! The event really looked like fun! 😃 Too bad about the C 47... But, hey... Crashing is part of the fun! Stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊

Oh no, not the DC3/C47!!! So sorry to see that one go down hard. Also sorry to miss getting to fly with you while I was back in Bama again. We gotta talk to Josh about this scheduling thing!😅 Keep the wheels up (except for landing)!

Getting withdrawal symptoms just watching this... Nice footage, combat looks insane as always. Too bad I couldn't make it this year, but bureaucrats gonna bureaucrat I guess.

Making my rounds watching everyones Flite Fest vids 👍🏻 14:15 Oh no sorry to see that happen, 🤷🏻

Entertaining, thanks for posting. You have interesting content, a pleasure to view. Is your son flying yet? Hard do imagine that he would not be excited to join in.

A real shame about the C47, but it did an amazing job inspiring others and showing what’s possible. Very excited to hear about your new projects - you’ve always got something fun so if they’re more achievable for more people that sounds fantastic to me! Best wishes from UK.

Just wondering, would more powerful motors make a difference in recovering from such situations as happened to your beautiful green monster?. I realize that you are an excellent pilot, but obviously, extra power may greatly help. I feel for ya, buddy, sorry to see that happen, but you are such a talented builder, you will get out of the "dumps" soon with your next accomplishments. It only gets better from here, & kudos to your wife for supporting you! God bless.

Aww please fix the c-47 it is such a beautiful plane would hate to see it unrestored

rookie question: Have the camping reservations for Flite Fest 2024 opened up yet?

RIP for now DC-3 🫡 glad y’all had a ton of fun at FF23
