Re: Cactus Classic Mar 29-30
TQ..........I signed up but am really on the fence for now.
I have to work Friday till late. I'm not sure I can make the drive or not in time for the contest. Just wanted to give fair warning if you are doing the judge/scribe matrix

Re: Cactus Classic Mar 29-30
I am not sure the world can deal with more then two Tony's.
In the end we will be down to 60 pilots. Bill Malvey always told me not to worry about too many pilots that preregister. Something always comes up that will cause a few drops. I know that I am not flying, anyone that was at Bear Mountian saw what happened to my plane. I glad I wasn't there to witness it.

Re: Cactus Classic Mar 29-30
I was at Bear Mountain, If Rusty borrowed your plane, then I saw want happened to it. Rusty took off with a blabbering motor that refused to clear up and tryed to land it gently in the field past the runway, it appeared to have run into a big gopher hole or ? hole and ripped the landing gear off. That sucks, I didn't know it was Tony's plane.

Re: Cactus Classic Mar 29-30
They are probably not too happy about you stuffing landing gear in their holes either.

Re: Cactus Classic Mar 29-30
Sorry about your plane Tony........it happened in slow motion though
I'm officially out of this contest. I won't be able to make it. My work week is just too hectic and I have a Master's class project to complete before Sunday.

Re: Cactus Classic Mar 29-30
The plane actually is owned by Smart-Fly. But it was mine to use. I was told that the choke wasn't open all the way. Oh well, things happen. I will have it fixed up before the contest so Rusty can fly.
I only had 3 flights on it since the Jan EVA contest.
