BLOOMINGTON, ILLINOIS: Club #640,
Suburban RC Barnstormers Inc., held its
first annual Dome E-Nite Fly in the White
Pines Golf Dome in Bensenville, Illinois, on
a Saturday night in March 2006. The fun
started at 11 p.m. and didn’t stop until 5 a.m.
Sunday morning.
Roughly 70 registered pilots from three
states attended and more than 100 aircraft
kept the flightline busy all night. Time was
allotted for 3-D, slowfly, Scale, and
helicopter, giving spectators a great mixture
of flying styles, including some aerobatic
demonstrations from the best pilots in
Illinois.
Without a doubt, the crowd favorite was
the Ultimate Combat. Two rounds left few
Combat airplanes able to fly.
Next year’s event is already being
planned. Everyone is invited for a night of
fun. Pictures and information are from Jeff
Peca, a Barnstormer member.
Rough River, Kentucky: The annual Mint
Julep again had a large group of pilots at the
meet. Bob Underwood, associate vice

sent in a few pictures of the event.
This is a group shot of some of the pilots.

Gary Parenti with his dad Hal. Here they are
checking everything including the jumper.
Ready for take off.
