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

Lighten up. I'm not bashing the "reporter" Just for years now it seems the lower classes get dumped on as far as coverage in most every outlet. This year is no exception.

It's very easy to see why some may consider your comments as "bashing the reporter". I'm sure it's just your frustration of not being as informed as you would like coming through as bashing.

The info has been posted for all to see, hopefully this alleviates all concerns of any level of pilot not getting their just exposure.

My question to Wrench would be......."Before FG where did you get your info?"
Then I would say..."Thank you Max and your entire staff and all the other fine contributors for such a great site!"

Well, I will try to do a better job in reporting if I get the chance to do this again.

Let me start the wrap up page.

Ken thanks for your help earlier and if you could move it again to the front, we will close the deal.

I will be short on pictures as the batteries died in the camera before awards.

Chuck

Let me know when you want it moved, I'll be standing by.

BTW: You did a great job reporting, no way could that have been easy. I've covered local contests and flown in them at the same time, not a cake walk, by any means.

Chuck thank you for the effort you put forth. My post was in no way meant to demean your efforts. Sorry if you took it that way. This is just the thread/site I chose to respond to. I look forward to next years report from you.

I know for a fact the guys in Int and Advance tried just as hard, practiced just as much as the guys in FAI and Masters. My hats off to all that flew in all classes. Just seems the coverage across the board on every site was FAI/Masters with very little coverage of Int/Advance. Seems it's the same year after year, maybe the lower classes don't hold as much interest for everyone. I would like to see them get their "15 minutes of fame". They deserve it imho. Can you name who won last years FAI and Masters? Now can you name who won the other two classes?

I said I'd never again go to fly at a nats. I might have to eat those words, maybe even next year..........

If I do we'll cover it together. Deal?
