Default Long Overdue

Hey Crew,

This is long overdue but, been kinda busy since getting back to the Great White North from Tucson.

Just wanted to send out a HUGE thanks to the FG crew in Tucson. Max, I don't care what Biff says..... anyone who can take a decent punch in the eye and still share a beer with me, is OK in my book. Actually up here, a punch in the eye is a formal greeting. Momo, thanks for all the hospitality. MamaD, my stomach thanks you for the doughnuts when I was feelling a little "under-the-weather" on Sunday. Toro, Mrs Toro (sorry, can't remember your name) Snapasaurus, Boulder and the rest of the R2D2 worshipers, you made my (and Scot's) trip all worth it. Oh, Yeah, there was some great flying to watch as well.

Dick and Dick, you two are truly Giants among men, although, you guys need to learn how to let your hair down, relax, and just have a good time. Thanks for everything.

Biff, dude you are one funny looking redneck!! The pics from on here just can't capture the true essence of Biff. Seriously, it's been a long time since I laughed that hard. Too much fun.

Snapasaurus........... AMERICA !!! Sorry, you had to be there

I'm sure I'll think of more to add to this but, I'll sign off for now.

Here are a few pics...... I don't think there's much point adding very many as there are already a ton in the gallery. Thought you might like these though.

Cheers,
Dave

ps: it's way too damn cold up here, my thumbs freeze just thinking about flying. Wish I were back in Tuscon!

Like Toro said, don't make it the last time, come to the Nall, you will not be disappointed just like the TAS was, it gets better every time I promise, especially that you are a friend now and we will have airplanes to fly, see you.

Sorry I didn't get the chance to hang out with you guys at TAS! I spent most of the day flying at an offsite field and ended up not bringing a trailer, so my evenings were spent in town. I also missed the Nall last year but don't plan to this year!
