Unbelieveable you guys this is going to be a contest we talk about for years to come. I have had emails from guys that are rearranging family vacations and much more. Our good buddy Jon B. has been a huge help with the shirts and I can't wait for you guys to see them. Don A. when you ordered the shirts I thought you were in for sure. I talked to Chris and since he seems to have a legite excuse we have let him off the hook but you being the responsible parent we all exspect you here.

This deal needs everyone to be successful. Our club is working around the clock to make this far more then just a contest. Our hobbyshop has ordered a bunch of Gee Bee's to have on hand and is offering them at a smokin $155.00 each. If you want us to put one aside let me know so we can order some more.

I will bet if we add up the pattern years of experience that will be at this event the number will be staggering. I know between just a few guys its over 250 years total. Tomorrow alone we will have 8 guys in to practice. 4 are for sportsman. Richard V is test flying tomorrow and Rusty Van Baron is not far behind.

Jim Kimbro has dug deep into the rafters and has already flown the original Silloutte. He and Matt will be down Fri. Sat and Sun to practice. I see from Riverside Tony is back in form in FAI as well as Jerry, Jon, Bill W. and many others in Masters. There are just to many names to remember but my email is filling up daily.

I don't know what else to say but CMON guys lets do it. Were ready for ya!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
