On Saturday, November 7, AMA District VIII hosted Wings Over Windsong, a fun fly RC event at Windsong Ranch in Prosper, Texas. It was an exciting day of flight attended by close to 800 people. Along with AMA District VIII VP, Mark Johnston, attendees watched Quique Somenzini, F3A World Champion, fly a selection of airplanes provided by Bill Simpson. Video below shows Somenzini demonstrating his superior skill at the event. https://youtu.be/ryZgVbp6eEI Kids and adults witnessed the landing of a full scale Medivac Helicopter from PHI Air Medical (pictured below). The helicopter was on display and attendees had the chance to get a look inside. For added fun, the AMA Mobile RC experience simulator trailer was stationed at the event. 
The event was held in support of the Wounded Warrior Project, and managed to raise $2,650. Congratulations to event organizers for their hard work: Windsong Ranch development group, AMA District VIII, Rowlett RC Club, North Dallas RC Club and Richardson RC Club, Mark Johnston, Ed Kranz, Charles Shaffer, John Williford, Lauren Stephan, and Kris Wilson.
