Default Bring Matt back!

Hey Gang,

As some of you may already know, as of now Matt Chapman will not be flying at Joe Nall this year because when people were asked, most said they preferred not to have their R/C flying interrupted.

I don't know about you, but for me one of the highlights of Joe Nall was getting to see acrochimp strut his stuff! He is one helluva guy and a huge asset to this hobby.

So lets hear it, what would you rather have, either uninterrupted R/C flying, or a ten minute break to watch one of the best aerobatic pilots there is?

Your kidding Right, this isn't a April fools joke. Matt flying at the Nall was the high light of each day. Hey lets cut out all the demos at mid day also if people are going to get picky. It puts a nice break in the middle of the day to take a break and enjoy what this hobbies all about. Come on guys let's support Matt Chapman to come back this year. Hopefully it's not to late. Rob

Matt already posted that he will be there, just with an R/C plane. He didn't mention anything about putting on anther show though. It would be a shame to not have him fly.

Bring him back! Bring him back! Bring him back!.............

Put him in there! That is a huge disapointment to here. You don't want your r/c flying interuped take your butt home and fly ! this is a huge show and mr chapman is one hell of a show to see. im sure they could take the joe nall out of there schedule and put in a full scale p-51 meeting instead!
Im so sick of having to be so damn politicaly correct to make everyone happy if you don't like it don't go

One of the most memorable moments from the Nall was Friday afternoon as I recall. My wife and I were taking a little break from the flight line. We were back around the neck of the lake fishing. Matt was coming in to show center and must have decided to come around behind the crowd to get there. We heard a roar and then there he was, right over the treetops, decending, banked hard left and flat out screaming. He flew down the lake banking to follow the contour. It was like our own private air show. Thanks Matt!!!!

Seeing him work that Cap was badass. The routine with him and Frank flying in "formation" was just too cool. I think it was an awesome mix.
