None of the items I have are the same as your items. My stuff is better.

BTW - I guess if the price were right there could be a great big Extra for sale. I doubt Rick would care...

Not sure if the registration list is complete, I know it would help Rick out tremendously if people sign up before hand so they are ready saturday morning and only have to collect entry fees.

SO , Dont miss this one folks, sign up and be prepared to have a good time... Boat race huh, well, it can only be better than the TAS 2008 Boat TALK that went on. I witnessed the qualifying rounds and let me tell ya.. I am on Ryan G's Team!

Can't wait to see everyone there, last one of the year

I'd buy it but I have one that is in the process of being gone through and recovered. He wants to sell it airframe and servos. Price I believe is $2800. If interested let me know and you can fly it Saturday evening if there is time or Sunday after the contest. Dan

How can you sell Andy's Dalton It belongs to me. He told me that if he didn't ship my carb blocks by a certain date he would give me his Dalton, well he missed the date, and being a man of his word the Dalton is mine, I appriciate you bringing it down for me.

Only the top 3 should count less than 10% of the pilots can make 6 contests.

I was thinking more like 4 contests. If your statistic is correct, I am in the vast majority not ever dreaming of hitting 6 contests in a year.

Three might be the most I could make in a year, but I'm doing it more for myself than a trophy. However, a trophy would be very nice...

[Rick Strange]

I agree that 3 contests is too few. The points competition should (1) encourage people to attend contests and (2) reward those who do. While there is no perfect number, it needs to be high enough to be a little bit of a reach to serve as an incentive and reward, and to level out the distorting effect a single contest can have. If the consensus is that 6 is too many I would rather see us try an incremental approach. Cut it to 5 for a year. If next October the consensus is that its still too high, cut it to 4.

I vote 4 contests, Nats and one contest out of region can count. If you attend more than 4 you may get the iron-man award and better your standings because the TOP 4 count.

Dan B, See post 88. Take good care of my Dalton I don't mind if you fly it as long as it is In one peace after the contest

Four contests sound about right to me, I'm just saying because of my current situation (grad. student) that 3 might be all I can make. But as I said, I'm doing it more for myself to improve and because I like the competition. Maybe after I get done with school I could do more contests.
