Photos of the 2015 Event:
This was our second year at Temecula. The weather was perfect and the crowd was noticibly bigger than the year before and the forums were well recieved.

 

Photos of the 2014 Event:
This was our first year at Temecula. The weather forecast was totally wrong with its prediction of overcast and rain, as the day was rather spectacular. But the dire prediction kept a lot of people from showing up. We still had a great turnout!

Photos of the 2013 Event:
In 2013 we had an unprecedented heat wave all weekend. Temps were well over 100 degrees all weekend, keeping the majority of the show planes home, but our presenters stuck it out and gave their forums like real champs.
