Winds have been blowing in Tucson in the high 20's some gusts more than 35mph. A bit breezy. Looks like good foamy weather .

I run the Fasst system, but I still run two recievers. This way I have all 4 directions covered. Installation is "most crucial" to success with this system. Is Bill flying with one, or two recievers? It is a bit more dollar wise, but way less than risking an airplane, or the collateral damage because of an accident. So far, knock on wood, I haven't had a single glitch.

Mike, this confuses me - do you have some electronics gear that keeps the whole plane working if one receiver poops out ? I understood lots of people using 2 receivers but in a way that one powered the left side, and one powered the right or something like that...

This is Nick reporting from Timpa, the center of the universe! 2nd day here. 80 degrees today with fairly light winds. (as that goes in Tucson) Probably 10-15 gust to 20 calm at other times. Lots of flying today. Maybe a couple dozen or so pilots here. It was really cool to see QQ come out yesterday and fly his BIG python. The thing has screaming power w/DA200 and 4 tuned pipes. This has been a mind blower and its pretty low key so far. Things will really be ramping up here in the next couple days. John, Dave, & Darren have obviously been flying a lot. They're all looking spot on. I've been able to fly a lot with Johns plane and it flies on rails. This plane will stop on point or snap rolls right where you want it to - right now. I'm quickly getting used to the plane and am flying it as good or better than mine. Saw a terantula today as big as my fist. John and I are staying with Darren and Cheri in Darrens RV. Hav'n a great time so far, & I'll try to check back in eves after dark. Pops, I put in for your pit passes. Gotta go, time to eat.

Mike..
I talked to Microsoft security today in India,this is quite common with Nigeria to hack innocent peoples computers. If you responded you should be fine, as long as you did'nt send them the $2500.00 their asking for.
They somehow got my password for my email account and have sent their email out to all my contacts in my data base asking for money.

I can no longer sign in to my Email account, cause they've changed my password. MSN is looking after it for me,this could take 24 hours. MSN said they will also send out a Email to all my contacts, saying that the orginal Email was Bogguss..

Just make sure you sign off (Log Out ) of your Email account after using it!!!. Enter your password each time you go on your Email account.!!!
