Well Max, I want you "ALL" to know we appreciate your efforts, and the videos you took were off the hook, and thank Toro for the great filming job on the sequence flights he got, not an easy task with those cloud conditions.
So just do what you do and have a blast at the TSO and give us a report when you can.

Thanks, Chuck

The good news is that we can still vids and photos uploaded throughout the day.

Thanks again for your understanding guys.

Max just give the video you upload a cool name TAS-PODCAST and it will sound leading edge, posting the vids is better so us aussie's can get some sleep and not be up watching live stream at 5am, plus we get to replay your commentary/comedy for extended laughs....


Did you figure out what rooting means yet... WE ARE ROOTING FOR YA MAX!!!

Too bad Elie did not have his plane there. You could hook up an antenae to it and he could hover all day to get better reception......



On second thought he hovers too low for that to be effective.




Why don't you just mount it to his head

MAX I found the problem.

Here are some shots of the make shift satellite network Max had built quickly under a plastic tent there at the field.

I was reviewing the shots for Max to see if I could find an "easy fix" for the problem.

Well after studying the photos for quite some time, I think I have found the culprit.

If you look in the second photo its easy to see that the Fiber-Optic Mnemonic SSID canister is out of position and should be reconnected to the VLB Hexadecimal ocilating generator detector. Once corrected, the transmission should be clear as a bell.

My initial thought of a bad desimation mutiplex dihedrial ocilator was completely wrong and I apologize for this.

Hope this helps MAX!

Ya know Sleep. I am glad that you are man enough to admit when you are wrong. I was up all night trying to figure out a way to tell you that your first assumption was clearly wrong, without offending you. You are correct now. I commend you for your service.
