I dont remember the results in all classes.
I am sure Jeff will post them here when he see's this.

Andy,
I met Mike Flander. Great Pilot.
He said he flew with you and Jason at least once.
He did REALLY well for his first contest. 3rd place in Sportsman out of 10 guys.
Sportsman this year has some extremely tough competitors. Really cool to see.
I think 1st through 4th had less than 100 points going into the Unknown and I think the finals scores to 3rd or 4th were close also.

We had REALLY nice weather all weekend. St Louis has gotten a sh*t ton of rain lately so the field was extremely wet all weekend. Planes would land and look like they were waterskiing as they drug themselves though all the standing water.
You couldnt escape standing water at all. I'd say the entire field was 75% saturated. Some parts would dry later in the day but the majority of the field still remained soaked.
Despite that, they ran a good contest. 3 rounds yesterday + Freestyle.
Unknown and one more Known round today. We were on the road by 1:00pm.

Thanks Jeff for another good Roxana IMAC.

I forgot to mention Justin Hildebrandt..
Him and his dad ran into some problems on thier plane because of the water so Justin borrowed my plane for 2/3 of the contest.
He flew it really well and wound up winning in Intermediate.

Thumbs up Re: Roxana Contest

This was a fun contest and I got a tan on my feet from walking around barefoot all day saturday and sunday... I hate walking in wet shoes. I think that the group of pilots in sportsman are going to make this a really enjoyable season

- Justin did an awesome job flying Wayne's Extra. I'm amazed how sharing this group of guys are, there were several borrowed airplanes in the air this weekend! it is nice that everyone is so.... nice!

until next time,

Chris

It was a great event. everyone had a great time a little airplane carnage but all in all awsome. My feet are still waterlogged it was wet wet wet and Waynes plane kept finding the wet spot every landing.. Ya sportsman is tough 1 point between 1st and 2nd and 3rd and forth was tight. Crazy its been that way all year at least 10 pilots at each event in NC. Good to see everyone, cant wait till next one
