Chip Hyde took first in the Cyprus international F3A contest held at my club in Nicosia, Cyprus. He edged out Sebastiano Sylvestri. After the contest, both Chip and Sebastiano put on some exhibition flights and they were spectacular! Chip flew a QQ Yak and just had amazing control over it. Sebastiano flew his pattern plane in a great 3-D freestyle routine. Then Sebastiano flew a BVM F100 jet. Chip took up a couple of peoples planes and even flew my friend's Raptor 50 Titan. What a day! U-S-A! U-S-A!
