Default Re: JR Challenge 2006

I would like to thank John Sharpless and John Nelon for there help at the JR challenge. John Sharpless of Aerotech was kind enough to help me out with a place to stay and a tent to crash under for the contest as well as transportation down there, he also was kind enough to be my caller and start off my freestyle routine.

I also want to thank John Nelon for the use of his Extra 300 midwing, he had only test flown the plane 1 week prior to the contest and the motor was still being run on break in fuel. I want to thank him again for allowing me to use this airplane in the freestyle.

I also had the opportunity to call for both Johns at the Challenge and again thank you for that because that is extremely helpful for my own flying.

i also would like to thank Andy Kane as well as all the Judges for coming down and putting this contest on. Without them there would be no JR Challenge and we would be without a great contest.

Thank You all again

Mike Elder

I forgot to mention that John Sharpless and the aerotech boys helped me out quite a bit when I went down to florida for the challenge. I also would like to thank Tony Russo for helping me out also. Thanks everybody for your help and support it was a blast.
