Thanks go to Allan for hosting a great IMAC event and to the Propnuts club for giving up their field for the weekend. Also thanks to Tru-Turn, DA, and the other sponsors for the prizes.

I look forward to this event again next year.

Yes, I thought Allan and the Prop Nuts members that helped him did a great job of running the contest. No major glitches, perfect weather (a little humid, but hey, it's south Texas) and great flying (except maybe for myself)!! Their field and facility are really some of the best that I've been too.

I offer my thanks and appreciation to Bob Oberbergen (sp?) of Tru-Turn Spinners, DA and all the other sponsors for providing great prizes!! The trophies were really neat - little spinners with a prop on the plaque.

Thanks again Allan.

Bobby

As soon as my score keeper sends me the file I'll post complete #' s with scores.

Thanks again to all who showed up and participated. Also thanks to Jim Fowler and Clint Duewall who helped me work thru a couple of judging assignments. Eddie Bernaldez and Jim deserve a big hand for judging the final

Sorry about the double post , I hit a wrong key and it posted before I finished:....



As soon as my score keeper sends me the file I'll post complete #' s with scores.

Thanks again to all who showed up and participated. Also thanks to Jim Fowler and Clint Duewall who helped me work thru a couple of judging assignments. Eddie Bernaldez and Jim deserve a big hand for judging the final round of Basic on Sunday morning. It was brutal !! In the upper 4 groups the competition is really close all the way up and our basic class has some real talent coming up.
We'll do it again next year.

Allan

I can't believe it takes comments like this to get Lyndel to post.

Forget about posting... what does it take to get more of you guys to fly in Freestyle? Being just a lowly basic pilot, it's fun to watch all the guys with serious talent show some creativity.
