How About a D2-D3 Challenge
 

Today taking to Tery he gave me the idea to do this will take placed in May 15-16 at my home field located in Covington Ga this field is about 5 hours from Myrtle Beach and Eglin AFB so I think is a good central area so who will say AH to this. Its not official yet but I will like to have some imput about this from D2 and D3 pilots who will attend its this happen.

I'm in

We tried that with D1.... They didn't show up.

RE: How About a D2-D3 Challenge
 

I'm up for it amd I think the rest of the Eglin gang will be too.. Given the dates, you could call it the Team America X-treme Model Aerobatic Nationals (TAXMAN) Pattern Contest http://www.rcuniverse.com/forum/js/f...eeth_smile.gif. I think D3 wil;l make a good showing since it looks like it's going to be a little thin on contest this year with both Ocala and Jacksonville cancelling out. So, I think most of us will support anyone who puts on a contest.

Hey Victor,

That sounds like fun and you can count on Chris and I. I don't know about us being any kind of a ringer but we'll sure try.

Hey Victor,
Since Larry is on my hit list, if he is gonna be there put
BOPOD down for sure...Hope it happens....Doug

Thou shall defend District 3's honor ! Count me in !

RE: How About a D2-D3 Challenge
 

Hey, I think it is a great idea. As a newcomer I would like to see as many events as possible. I was really thinking of a way to make the Jacksonville event more viable, and profitable. But Covington is a great location. if you need some help let me know...Terry

RE: How About a D2-D3 Challenge
 

Probably need to run this date by Larry Kaufman to make sure theres not a contest in D2 that weekend.

Tim

RE: How About a D2-D3 Challenge
 

Mark,

They will be there next year. Unfortunately the weekend fell on Red Bull airrace weekend in the northeast and we lost quite a few to that. The contest is continuing next year on the same dates, but there is no red bull competition next year.

RE: How About a D2-D3 Challenge
 

I'm looking for support again from D2. I was amazed at the turn out for the D1-D2 challange. I know D2 will be up for the chance to show our district pride. I hope I can get some of the pilots from the northern portion of the district to attend. I expect to be there. As VP of the district it is a must. I appreciate D3 putting this together. Truely a great way to involve more pilots in pattern and every one gets to meet flyers from another district.

Go D2

RE: How About a D2-D3 Challenge
 

Hey Victor,

Great job and I wish I could have been more help on the printer problem. Get with Gene and let him know your problem and he can then go back and fix the program for others. Some where I have that fix in an e-mail from him and it takes care of the print problem and when I find it I'll send it to you. Maybe next year you can have that contest in April and I can attend, and make sure you are going to be able to do ribs for districts so that I will finally get to try some. I always miss out for some reason. Chris gave a report and said it was a great contest and also thanks for putting him up in your home this weekend.

Thanks
Larry
