2022 Jet Rally

This Years Jet Rally was very successful. The weather was a bit overcast but did not stop the over 30 pilots from flying. We even had a group of full size aircraft do a flyover and landings at the airport. This year the Saturday night dinner was held right near the landing strip.

In the beginning

Our club was established in 1971 and we built our field on Rough and Ready Island through help from the United States Navy. Unfortunately, the land was returned to the Port of Stockton and we had to leave our field.  Our second field was built on farm land east of highway 99 with the help of one of our members.   Some time later that land was returned to farming so we again were in search of a new place to fly.

Currently are members are flying at Kingdon AirPark 12145 Devries Rd, Lodi CA.

Drone Registration

If you were a good boy this year and received a new drone for Christmas then you might want to register it with the FAA.  Use this link to the FAA web site to register (still only $5) and other information on how to fly safely.  https://www.faa.gov/uas/recreational_fliers/

2020 Jet Rally in the Valley

November 6,7 & 8th The Delta Valley Modelers held our 12 annual Jet rally. Despite Covid-19 and some rather windy condition on the first day pilots enjoyed 3 great days of flying.  There were may familiar faces and some new ones in attendance.

Pilot registration fee not only gets you three days of flying but a T-shirt and a steak dinner on Saturday night.

Plans are already in the work for next years Jet rally.  A possible date may be sometime in October.  Keep checking our web site for updates on that date and don’t forget to check out the new video that was posted for this years event.

War bird turn out

Very nice turnout for our War Bird event. We had a total of 24 pilots sign-up. Lots of good flying with many jets.
Our AMA district 10 representative Lawrence Tougas stopped by, took some pictures, and did some interviews. We need to send him a personal invite to our Jet Rally. It would certainly help our events if we could make the AMA magazine.
