Default THE FINAL DAY OF THE TAS HAS ARRIVED!!!

As sad as it is to think about, the reality is the TAS is over today.

We are currently in the middle of the first Freestyle of the day, and the flying is getting better and better. As we all know, the best of the best are flying today, which means what we are watching is some of the best flying you will see anywhere...anytime...

By now you've all have heard that the BLT/T-BLT cookoff and charity drive was a huge success. The last word was a little more than $3000.00 for our charity, now that's what I call doing it GIANT STYLE!!! Max won, but with slightly controversial added judges, some may say it was loaded in his favor...what do you members think? One thing for sure, the big winners are the kids, that's why we did this in the first place. THANKS SUPER DAVE!!!!

As you can see, the homepage picture is of our very own Kyle Woyshnis dragging the rudder in his first freestyle today...time to think what you're going to do in the next one, 'eh Kyle?

Sometime this afternoon, shortly after the flying is done. They're in the middle of the last Known round, then one final round of Freestyle.

The last freestyle is now complete, and flying at the TAS is over. The crowd is gathering for the raffle right now, and Momo will be posting the scores - we'll be on the phone dictating them as it goes down.

Folks, we have a HUGE pile-o-media we're bringing home, stay tuned for TONS of more videos from today. Hope you all enjoyed the 1 1/2 hours of tape from yesterday.

Final thoughts and perspectives throughout the evening...
