I also want to thank all the judges. Don, Steve, Jason, Ryan and all those whose names I can't remember. And, of course Orlando. Everyone did a great job and it was a very enjoyable weekend.

I have to go back many years to remember a weekend of flying that was that much fun. I don't remember every attending a contest where the judges and pilots where so layed back and laughing in the middle of a flight. It was a better time than I could ever have hoped for. Thanks again guys.

In my case it was a great learning experiance. I called for Ed Kirtley which help me learn the Sportsman maneuvers. The guys are not going to let me live it down if I go to another contest and compete in Novice. I start practicing the Sportsman sequance this week. Now if the King Altair where available and built I would have a plane for Sprotsman.

I'm only sorry it had to end. I look forward to seeing everyone at the next contest.
