Its was very cool, him and his son both are out standing. I promise to give a lot more notice next time.
Well, I would have said something to the other circus members, but I did not think it was my place to do the invitations.

Lucky, flying through the fireworks was a hoot! I don't know if you could hear me or not, but during the grand finale, I was laughing my arse off!

Matt and I had a blast!!! Great flying, great food, great hospitality. Only one thing, I wish they had not let me fly that H9 Ultimate, now I gotta have me one!!! That plane was awesome. I think the circus would be proud of us, Matt flew the Extra A LOT (7 or 8 flights), the Katana twice, and the Cap foamie once. I flew the Aspera twice and the Cap Foamie through the fireworks.

Matt and I will be at the RDRC field today (Sunday) early. Also, Fred Midgett will be coming by to shoot some video of the big Extra, and the new Vanquish.

Would y'all check your radio boxes and pockets and see if you have the channel 50 freq pin? It's missing from the board at the field. I did this at the last Fly-for-Tots, so I know it's easy to do!

Thanks!
Dave

I also test flew it. All I can say is this thing is awesome. I wish I could take credit for the design, but that goes to Mr. Vess. It is one great flying foamie.
