Hi guys,

I will be there if work leaves me alone. I am trying to get another local long time pattern pilot to come with me.

Uh-oh! All along I was going off the CPA site posted date... didn't realize until right now that this event is NEXT weekend! Unfortunately, this puts it on a 'working' Friday weekend and; since I'm 'negative' with vacation after coming back from the F3C World Championships, I'm probably going to have to pass :-(

I'll let you guys know for sure later in the week.

Rats...

Cliff,



Hope that you make it, can't imagine you not making it with your son Dan there.  Look forward to seeing you there, I had to reschedule a doctors visit at UAB because of the date change.

Default Not going to make it :-(

Sorry guys, not going to make it this weekend...

Curt,
Daniel was down last weekend for a friends wedding, so he's probably tired of seeing me... especially since we returned from almost two weeks together in Poland last Monday. Maybe he'll come out for a bit and watch you guys have fun!

I'm definitely planning on being at the Prattville event in Sept. Hopefully the dates of Sept. 21 and 22 are correct?

Regards,
Cliff

Jon,

It could have been worse. You could have been beat by a 13 year old kid flying a underpowered hunk-a-junk.
