Congrats! I can understand that. I flew one contest in 2000 about a month and a half after my first son was born. That was my last IMAC contest for about 4 years. The family things can cut into the practice and flying time but there are more important things than toy airplanes.

Dan,

Congrads on making the Shootout!! Sure wish that I could have gone this year, but work load has doubled, and the rest of the year is shot. Hopefully the boss will hire a third pilot, and next year will be different...

Congrads to all the other SC guys. I know you boys will make a great showing!!
