Hope you can make it Tim, I'm going to start practicing this weekend

I'm not backing out Ken, I'll save that for later.

I have a new super secret weapon on order and it should be here in a month or so. Been flying a bit lately but need to get with a good coach.

This area, at one time, was the nations busiest part of the country for pattern. Heck you could fly a contest just about every other weekend for about 6 months of the year or so and never drive over 250 miles to do it. Now we might get 4-5 contests a year. We're trying to change that.

I was in negotiations for a flying site that would support Pattern and IMAC on a 900 acre field but the owner and I couldn't come to agreement on the lease. I wanted 10-15 years and he wanted 2. No way I'm making that kind of monetary input for 2-3 years. To bad really. I'm still looking.
