Default South Central NATS Pilots

Congrats to all of our South Central Pilots that made the trip Muncie!!!!!

We had many newbees in there and they stood up to the challenges and also learned a lot. Hope all of you make it back next year.

We had several veterans that took on some stiff competition across the board.

Good job guys!!!!!

Rick

Rick - it was great meeting you in person. I always enjoy the NATS because I get to see people I only talk to on the internet and others that I only see once or twice a year. And this year Moldy came back out of retirement!

Good seeing all you boys. Hope you can make the trip again next year. Also hope to see most of you in Tucson.

Ken
