I know what you mean... I played hookey on Wednesday this week... went out to the field with my Ultimate, the winds were gusting pretty bad. I did have one flight, but it was hardly worth the trip. Today was a beautiful day for flying...but I spent the entire day on the phone. Hopefully Sunday will be better.

Well sad news for sure... looks like Huckfest is out for me this year.

I just traded my EF Extra towards a 35% Radiocraft Extra.. won't be ready in time because I need the servos to finish a review first. Also rob put in his plane and it won't be fixed by then.

Guess next year it is

Come down anyway. .there will be plenty of planes, and transmitters, to pass around.


If you are not flying, it's only because you don't want to ! !

Mine's the 46% Hangar 9 with a 3W 170. A great plane to throw around, and simple to get up and down.

I'm not going to bring any planes to the event... I'll leave it to you guys that are dragging hardware in from all over the coutry. I just want to meet some of the folks I trade messages with on this site, and have some fun watching others having fun.

reyn dont worry about planes. Just like stated above there will be plenty of planes if you wanna take one for a spin.

I might even let you take one of mine for a spin if you will help me with a little subtraction.
