Man, Every year I say I'm going to be there and something always comes up. This time I;m starting a new job. And already asked off for the Extreme Indoor Championship in Memphis on the 12th. But after that It looks like I'm going to be making it to more events than ever! I now set my own schedule at work so that ='s lots of fly-ins/ competitions!

Team Futaba will be there, both as pilots and in the Judge's chair.

Look for us in the Pumpkin Patch!!

I believe that the Jet deal is in Lakeland. Punta Gorda is 88 miles south on US 17. The Challenge runs from Thursday through Sunday. Sunday is mostly cut loose Freestyle and demos.

I think the usual gang from Texas is skipping it this year. I've been the last 3 years, but unfortunately
I don't think we'll be able to make it.

I'll be there competing in intermediate, I am scared sh*tless of the blind mans bluff, but I have heard there is no directional spins or rolls so I should be ok.

What kind of prizes do the winners get? I have been told it is a prize contest but on the website is nothing but door prizes and raffles.

I'm leaving on Feb 25th from NY, I hope to get some practice done down there before the contest ! It will be a first contest for my SuperExtra. I'm staying in Advanced for now.

I wouldn't get too worked up about the Blind Man's Bluff Unknowns. The intent is to have you fly an sequence that you have not seen before, not to see if you can get twisted up. These sequences are fairly simple, have no direction sensitive roll elements and no squirrel chasers.

The idea is to have a fun time with it, not scare you to death.

Hey Randy, how about sending me the CC25 I bought and paid $50 for? Or since you don't plan on sending it to me, why don't you refund my money?

ATTENTION: DO NOT PURCHASE ANYTHING FROM THIS SELLER, HE IS A CROOK WHO RIPS PEOPLE OFF!!!

Barry and I are leaving Thursday Morning so it looks like it will be a race. I'm picking up a new truck this Friday. I guess the tranny ect. get to be broken in on the way to FL.
We'll have to exchange cell numers before we hit the road.

Heading down to the JR Challenge this weekend. I'll have my nice mini digital camera if I can figure out a way to upload. I'm roughing it on site at the field with some buddies. True nature style, with no internet connection.

See ya!

Don
