I want to thank Chip for inviting me to this event.
I plan on going back and taking more D6 guys with me next time.
The quality of flying in all classes was high and this made a great event.

Brian Clemmons and I had a good time visiting with old friends and meeting new ones like Peter Vogal, Jim Oddino, Steve Hanna, Gordon Anderson(who worked the scoring perfectly) Bill Malvery, And Bill Sheets. Bill Sheets loaned me his great flying Valiant so I could fly in the event and went out of his way to make sure I was ready to fly with fresh batteries and module swaps.
I twisted Derek K. arm to call the F pattern for me (as a unknown )LOL I think it aged him some ,Thanks Derek.
I know I probably left a few guys out But we had a good mini vacation. the Bakersfield airport was quick and easy to get in and out just perfect.

The field was great, the view better, and the hospitality of the local fliers and event workers was outstanding.

Hope too see you there next year.

Bryan
