Glad to see we are pulling so much interest from Europe! Today i am going to take a moment to snap some pics of our Canadian Contingent. These guys are great and come down to practce/compete against their continental rivals.

This is a perfect warmup for the Worlds for them and this is the second year they have come down that i am aware of.

Good luck to them and those reaching for the finals selection today.

Tough weather this morning, drizzle and of couse overcast, weater report is not looking favorable but after today, better and better. This will give me a chance to catch up on the masters and FAI postings, as they appear to stand now, but as i mentioned, things can change rapidly in the midle of the pack as flights are droppe and the matrix comes alive!

Good job on the write up and coverage Chuck and Mark, thanks for bringing us the latest!!!

I tried to call you a little bit ago, I'm assuming you're using your cell for your connection.

BTW: Who is the Mike you refer to in your 1st post?

[RC_Pattern_Flyer]

Editors typo.

Ok, here are the results for masters. Apparently FAI seems to have "disappeared".

And the dreary day appears like this.

YS engine: I better start kissing up or he is going to go electric!

I don't get the YS joke. YS is the dominate engine world-wide for pattern flying.

Back to the topic - someone please post the FAI scoring when possible.
Thanks,
