Yeah, after getting some expert advice on how to do spins, I may improve my scores in the next several contests!!

Yes, I really liked the Abilene contest, it was very well run, had lots of good food, good weather and great PR! My plane (and Eddie B and Melissa) made in on the 10 o'clock news! I have never seen so many spectators at an IMAC contest - I mean like they were everywhere!!

I hope to come back next year and no, I really didn't beat Jeff Fisher! He tried to make his plane into a lawn mower and decided not to fly that plane anymore (even though it was a FREE plane)!!

Do the contest scores eventually make it to the IMAC website? Some are there, but not all contest have the scores posted there. I trust they make it here in FG, just nice to be able to go to one site to see scores and another to talk about the event. Just asking, no humbug.
