This was my first 1-scale contest 2- First Scale Nats. Flying in Fun Scale Open against alot of really good pilots, I was able to finish 8th with my F-86 Sabre and took first place in Sportsmans Scale Sport class with my Ziroli 92" P-47. I really had a good time and met a lot of great people, modelers and competitors. I atcually think I was more nervous on Friday during static, than flying. Oh and by the way, I was the very first plane in the air Saturday, talk about being in the spotlight.
Anyway, thanks to all who answered my bazillion questions and your patience. Attached are the last three pages of the Nats News. See you next year.

Hey man. I was there with my dad on Saturday.. We were the ones that knew nothing about jets (that live about 20 minutes from the AMA) and I had to pry my dad away before he tried to stuff your F86 Sabre under his shirt and walk off with it.
It was cool watching you guy.. To be honest, your plane is the first RC jet I've seen fly in person..
