See you there,
Olivier

Matt, I am afraid not for two reasons. One is I am this weekend's event director and will be focused on running the best event I can for the competitors. The other reason is at the LARKS contest the weekend before last me and another competitor tried to occupy the same airspace at the same time[:'(]. Both planes survived and landed safely. I've not had time yet to repair mine.

Very nice. I can see myself getting into a Composite someday.
Ican't wait to maiden my Vanquish. Attach the H-stab and set the incidence, and she will be ready to go. Hopefully this weekend.

Big thanks go out to the club members of the Space City RC club of Katy Texas for hosting and supporting our sixth annual pattern event. Weather both days was challenging in regards to wind. All classes handled the conditions magnificently. Thirty four pilots attended this year.
Olivier it was very nice meeting you. Thanks for taking and posting your pictures.
