Chris, quit your job and cancel the trip while there's still time!!!! This trip could only lead to trouble. Those guys roll hard. DO NOT RISK THE United States' boat race winning streak.

You will really enjoy yourself with those crazy Queensland boys, if you find yourself further south in or near Sydney drop me a line, there are a lot of mode2 flyers at my club, if I ask nicely I might be able to borrow a Tx and buddy lead for a day. Edit.... I didnt see that you are only coming for a month, you probably wont get time to do much sight seeing.

Mick, it's not a matter of mite, it's a matter of WHAT!! I know what's going to happen. Chris will be there for a couple weeks, you guys will take it easy on him and play well. Then just before he's scheduled to leave you'll take him on a full on"walk about bender"! You'll get him all boozed up and next thing you know, there will be 1 Yank flying a $400,000,000 UAV with stealth missile launch and 40 hour fuel range flying advanced at the QUEENSLAND CHALLENGE!!! CHRIS,,RUN AWAY!!!!!
