RE: Superstition Pattern Contest AZ D7
Since we had to mark Jarvis absent this weekend, I took it upon myself to report on today's results
Nineteen pilots and Vic showed up to brave the warm breezes of the desert. After a nervous start things settled down and we had a pretty great day. Everyone cooperated doing their judging duties and drank lots of water so no one had to be carted out.
There were two close calls, on one flight Rusty's battery puffed up and split, but he was able to dead stick in without any damage. The other incident was Dalesbeautiful Angel's Shadow lost power on takeoff, he flew straight ahead and landed in the cactus and whatever else is out there and the only damage was to his pride and one wheel pant lost it's nose.
