Thought i had loaded this earlier. It is Chip talking a bit about his Scandulous Bipe

What a gorgeous plan and fantastic flyer, a few of them there.

They were flown by BW Ponder in Masters, Todd Blose in FAI and of course Chip.

Decent coverage of FAI and Masters. Can you share anything about the other classes that flew? I know it's a hard job covering all the classes. But I think they desrve some coverage as well. They earned it.

I'll bet it's hard to keep up with all classes, while flying in the contest and then posting as much as you've had time to find out in the day's events. Especially when most of us want to know who the next worlds team is. Therefore, I would probably make FAI my top priority when I'm not flying.....

There are two more threads on the Pattern Nats, both still on the front page under the main article, you will find some more coverage in them.

The main guy that covered the Nats, for us all to enjoy, flies Advanced, he did the best he could do while working and flying at the same time. I for one think he did an awesome job especially when you take into account he's providing this coverage for free, while using his own equipment and airtime at his expense.

Are not the scores for FAI and Masters in the same place as the other classes?

If you think that you can provide better coverage, then I can't wait to see it!

Chuck did a lot for us. I, for one, am thankful for his generous contributions. If you want more coverage, check out www.natsnews.org

I could be mistaken, but I don't believe they post the final two rounds for the classes, you find out the standings at the awards ceremony. You could probably see the final score sheets, but I don't think they post them.
