Love to go, don't think I'll make it though. Thatwas a great time, but work and my personal life won't allow me to compete this year. Will hopefully make it down for the weekend.

The Higher Plane crew will arrive on Wednesday. FlightPass coverage begins on Thursday night. Heather (FLG) joins us on Friday. This is her first time attending a big-time RC competition. She's really excited.
