It does have the 170 in it and the radio installation is slick and clean. I was able to give him the stickers for his plane's wing. You can't make out what it says in the picture but it has the FG swoosh plane and under it reads: "Fandango is my Wingman..... Kyle Spencer Foote 1989-2008" Kyle is getting to go to the Worlds with his buddy Brett! I had not seen Brett for a while (before high school graduation last year) and the beard was a little different to see on him. He is a great kid and is working hard at practicing for The WC. I'm proud to know him and his family. He'll do us all proud just like QQ, Jason and Andrew will! I'm predicting this is gonna be the kick-butt team that all the others will be chasing. Those folks over in Portugal may as well start engraving their names on the trophies now!! WT PS: Got a nice PM from Animal's Mom a few weeks back outlining how he is practicing hard and keeping up his work commitments also. These four are the epitomy of gentlemen sportsmen and have the greatest work ethic that will result in championship form! Go Team USA!

Hey Terry,

You've got that right...these guys will do us PROUD!!!

I was at the Dunley contest this past weekend with Brett, Archie, Chip and a slew of others...some great flying and good times...talk about HOT, well over 100 heat index both days!!!
I was messin' with Brett a little, glad he didn't sit in the chair when I was flying

My absolute best goes out to the team, each and every one...I do have a favorite I'm pulling for in the individual, can't help it, I've known him and his family for quite a while now.

Let's keep 'em coming guys and gals!!!

A huge thanks goes out to my sponsors who are being absolutely great with support for not only me but the entire team with there donations to the raffle.

Also would like to thank my parents who put up with me walking in the door from work and walking right back out to go to the flying field. My dad has gone along with me as well when I go out flying to coach me. Also, Charlie Williams and Verne Koester. Verne is the one who calls for me and helps with many other things. Charlie Williams builds the planes for me. He has done this for many many years. I know without these 2 guys I would not be where I am in today.

I will try and get out and get some pictures with the planes as well.

Hi Sleepy
