Thanks Chuck and Mark,

Is there more pilots than what's on the sheets? I had heard that there were about 40 each in Masters and FAI. It looks like there some no shows in Masters.

Jason flamed out with his OS 200 FI powered Integral. He flew his electric for the second round, but i am not sure if it was the Integral or the old Impact.

He will be fine, drop that round and make the Semi's as long as he does suffer from any other bad luck.

We have had one mid-air so far, I know it was Lamar Blaire and another masters pilot on site 3, none of the top 3 were involved but not sure who it was. Lamar landed the plane to the applause of the onlookers on the centerline missing one half his stab. the other plane landed safely.
