Thanks Slowhuck for a very nice wrap-up and photo spread. Well, it was a wee bit on the chilly side, but we had a good turnout and I think (I hope) everyone was able to go home having learned a bit. A big thanks again to FWB senior and his bearded young-un for allowing us to invade their private aerodome for the weekend. Additionally, kudos to Pete and Dave, I couldn't have pulled it off without their help. Finally, all the guys who braved the temperature and snow flurries to come out an learn a bit about this IMAC thing or to improve their skills . . . it was your weekend and you guys made it a success. Hope to see everyone at a contest this summer. t |

Ok guys I made it home and I have to say I had LOTS AND LOTS of fun. I don't think i can thank everyone enough for the southern hospitality... Special thanks to Mr. Huntsinger, who was gracious enough to allow me to park my temp home in his yard. Thanks to Ty and Dave for providing much needed information... Pete, and Kent ("the other one") Thanks for calling for me. You both taught me a lot about calling and hopefully I can put that to good use this year. Kent ("flyin woodbutcher") for the super super southern hospitality and reminding me this all for fun. Thanks to Bat Fastard for helping with my plane ("it's money now"(northern style) "d*** on" (southern style)) and some very interesting conversations. Remember guys you have to come up and let you show you all some northern hospitality (I am not sure i can top this weekend but i give it a shot")... Thanks again to all and hope i see ya all soon. OH one last thing.... This barn is awesome tons and tons of planes....... all shapes and sizes OHH forgot and how could I Slowhuck thanks for the pics.....

As usual, the best part of a weekend of flying is making new friends and I definitely did that. I could hang out with every one of these guys. Despite the weather we got a fair amount of flying in and some good classroom time when we needed to warm up. Thanks Ty for pulling it all together and thanks to Sr and Jr Huntsinger (Flying Woodbutcher). As for the facilities- we are all jealous. Jr and Sr are definitly living the dream. A private field with a large hanger- just roll your plane out and fly! I hope to see everyone at at least one contest this year- and extend a special invite to everyone to come up (or down for some of you) to Maryland that last weekend in August for our contest (CAPI).

Thanks to the Huntsingers for hosting, and to Ty, Dave, and Pete for sharing their knowledge and expertise with the rest of us. Matt and I learned a lot. However, the best thing was sharing time with others that have the same interests. It was all fun. Braving the cold was absolutely worth it. We hope to see you guys at a few contests this year. Bob R.

This past weekend was absolutely AWESOME!!! Thanks to all for such a great learning experience. Ty, Dave, Pete, Sr & Jr Huntsinger etc.. Thanks also to Kent Porter for teaching me how to call. Events like these keep this hobby going. I have a new found respect for IMAC like never before. I was humbled with precision flying I witnessed from a great group of guys. The hospitality was bar none! Great pictures slowhuck. Thanks, Tony Williams |
