Photos of the 2006 Fun Fly - Coming Soon -
The Jefco AeroMod'lers and Colorado Rotor-Heads 6th annual Heli Fun Fly on May 20th was a great success, with 32 pilots bringing nearly 85 helicopters! I'd like to thank everyone for their efforts in making this year's event fun and exciting for all. We had a great turn out, with a fantastic array of models. Please also remember to support our event sponsors who graciously donated items for our raffle and event prizes. I am working hard to get all of the pictures taken by club members posted on the slideshow above soon - I have more than 150 new pictures to process. If anyone took pictures at the event and would like to have them added to the slideshow, please email them to the Webmaster.
