Just got back from the Huckfest... All I can say is WOW! What a good time that was! Definetly pulled that one off and everything went went smooth as silk... except for every time I flew one of Wizards airplanes... but then Ill have some video to explain that... Must sleep, hopefully some vids tommorow... I think I shot some video anyway in between flying and partying. Not to mention my foamy taking a direct hit from a bottle rocket that then proceeded to blow up inside the fuse, but survived, only to be finished off by Wizards skud-shot-roman candle to the prop that put her down for the count!!! All all caught on tape!!! All I have to say is, Nice shooting Matt and Wizard. I cant believe how many rounds that thing took before it finally bought it! R.I.P. Little Edge!

Also thanks to all the manufactures that donated and helped make the event a success.
Joe I got the Pitts minus few decals, cowl and wheel pants, kick ass scheme, should be interesting.
Back to the Huckfest, first thanks to all the prize donors especially Tony from Dalton because, yes I won that plane, like Wizard said I will ask Tony to build it for me as the new SNAP A SAURUS with the FLYING GIANT scheme, also thanks to Toby for all that he did for us and everyone who was involved.
We had a great time, it was worth the 850 miles drive, I will do it again.
It was a group effort, you did a great job.
Max has some killer video, some of it is extreme FLYING GIANT style, we shall see how far he will go, no matter what keep checking for pictures and especially videos.

2) My lack of an ability to buy a new passenger side of a BIG BLACk SUV.

But I still love ya JeeUm...
Now that you've hopefully recovered a little bit, what did you really think of the way that thing flew? I see they're for sale again at $380 and I really need a knock around airplane.

Also, what profile was that?
