District I

District I

Connecticut, Maine, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Rhode Island, Vermont

The legendary Triple Tree Aerodrome in Woodruff, South Carolina, hosted Joe Nall Week 2026 from May 8-15, delivering another unforgettable week of world-class model aviation.

Although I have missed attending only twice in 25 years, District I was expertly represented by Associate Vice President Steve Brehm. Steve stood up at the AMA Membership Meeting to brief attendees on our expanding outreach air shows and youth STEM initiatives. He spent considerable time connecting on the flightlines with our passionate district members, including the 13 who are pictured here. Ironically, the relaxed camaraderie of Joe Nall Week often allows us to interface with more New England club pilots than we can during the hectic weekend schedules back home.

Rather than running a traditional written recap of Steve’s personal impressions, we decided to build a dynamic digital archive. We have curated 24 of the absolute best YouTube videos that were captured by attending pilots, vendors, and factory flight teams. As Skybound RC’s Juan Sanchez perfectly titled his walk-through, this playlist shows “Joe Nall 2026: What It Really Felt Like.”
