I decided to start this thread live from XXII WAC. I will be giving updates periodically.

Well, they are half way through programme Q (the qualification flights). Mamistov (RUS) is in first and Robert Armstrong is presently third. These flights do not count in the competition scores but are required for qualification to move on. A minimum overall percentage of 60% is required to contintue to the next flights.

I sat all evening with Quique - he is here for an invited IMAC frestyle competition that will take place on Saturday and Sunday. I wil keep you up to date on the stats for both events.

'till I write again -

This is the top fifteen. Sorry for the formatting - took it straight from the electronic score sheet. Oh, and don't mind the typo's the keyboard I am using "sucks". I will post more on both events later. Keep replying. If you want to know the scores of a specific person, let me know. Or, if enough of you would like the complete scores, post up and I will see about how much room it takes up in a post.

Weather today is spotty. Ceiling is low and there is a 60% chance of rain. I am going over to the IMAC sight shortly.

Later.

Status: offline 		Presently posted scores are FULL Scale. WAC competition first freestyle is still in progress.

As for the IMAC event - I have been bouncing back and forth, but it is required to take a tram since we need to cross an active runway to get over to the IMAC box. They finished up their day and the top ten will fly tomorrow. I spoke with Quique and Sarlan but missed their flights. Everyone I spoke to was "impressed" but I did not see to many modelers among the bunch I spoke to. Of course, all the competitors are going to say the flew great. I am trying to get todays results of the IMAC, but these Lakeland folks leave quick.

I'll keep you posted with any results I can get. The events are still not organized and information comes at the price of walking the entire Sun -n- Fun campus.

Post more either later today or tomorrow morning.

Status: offline 		Just out of curiosity does anyone know how the planes get here from other countries? Most of the top aerobats only have a 600 mile fuel supply. Do they crate them on a ship or a cargo plane?

As for Svetlana, yes she is a cutie. Serge, the US Team Captain and I were talking yesterday and he relayed the store about the previous competition in which Svetlana wore a VERY short pair of shorts. Robert Armstrong said "three threads less and there would not have been anything to them at all. Well, she won the competition. POLITICS counts.

Anyway, Suk's aren't the only thing being flown. Actually, it's pretty mixed.

I will post the scores for the begining of yesterdays FULL Scale freestyle for WAC:
