Is anybody out there going to be able to report or cover on the European XFC this upcoming weekend? Glezellis and Leseburg is representing the US...thought it would be nice to get a report to see how things are progressing.

Thanks!

Hi!!!

I'm one of the competitors for the Belgian team...

I'll try to get as much video as I can... and I'll do a daily update at our website(3DCollege) if I have an internet connection overthere... (but I think there is one on the field)

Check out our EXFC page:
http://www.3dcollege.be/index.php?op...d=45&Itemid=59

I see flying giants is listed as a media partner on the EXFC website so maybe some will be there?

regards

Jvdo

Hello Jvdo,

Good luck at the XFC...being a competitor..do you know if there will coverage, as far as videos from the past ...and of the future?

There has got to be some pics from practice, dont hold out on us

Also, some of the names alot of us are not familiar with...can you or somebody give some highlights on some of the individuals competeing?

Again...Good Luck!

What up boys,
All I can say is wow, what a difference an ocean makes. Mr. Krill has graciously hosted myself and John for the event here in the Czech Republic. We are currently building a new model for John as he lost the primary due to unfortunate circumstances. Rebuilding a plane in another counrty with one day before the competition is very stressful to say the least. These guys at Krill have been more than kind to us.
John will be flying a Katana and I will be flying a new model, Yak 55m.
Food is different, Lifestyle is different, and they don't have shower curtains!

Well girls.......It's like 2am and we still have to get the rudder hooked up, and all the electronics in.

John is flying very well with some new music and as always a very well synced Free. Looking forward to EXFC.........Here we go again!

Surely that depends on what's in the shower?????

Beavis · 08-23-2007, 10:15 PM

Sorry negative pics,
I will try and get some uploaded, but unlikely. It is now 4:30am and We can't sit up straight. John is fitting the wings right now. HOLY S@#$ Man!

We have eaten at a gas station two nights in a row now! Europe ROCKS!

Absolutely gorgeous women here.....man o man. We were going to the club tonight before John screwed it all up. This makes 4 big planes this year for John. Poor Guy!

Wish I was Golfing this weekend now..........Chicks dig the long ball!

Tony.....no smartas@ comments from you.......go finish my airplane. Brendan......you ready for Tucson?

Seg..........Bite Me! GO TO SCHOOL!

This place really makes you appreciate home. O well......I needed a tune up for Tucson and this was the closest contest this weekend.........14 freakin hrs. Flight Attendants were cute though......and yes they were all female Max!

Later,

Mark

Mark, he is really excited just as I am....funny setting and thinking about what you told me the night you stayed with us.

I think he is ready, gonna have to do some flying when we get there to get adjusted though.

Hoping to be able to get with you when we get there for a little bit and practice together. When you get a chance give me a call, couple of details that we talked about that I need to work out and confirm with you.

Good luck with the EXFC !
