Yeah I did. . N726ac typed that for me. . As you can seem I'm the only one with the stones to take a plane up and do a bit of hucking . .used my 5 year old Comp-Arf 3M Extra (the infamous "tree plane from Joe Nall).

yes, it's windy.. .yes you can hover and TR in it. . . it's not THAT cold, either, as evidenced by y t-shirt attire.

So, come on down and bring a plane.

Remember. . if YOU don't come, it means a better chance for ME to win a prize ! ! ! !

Nasty man, nasty. Kris the only way we'll believe you are hucking is if you are hovering or flying below the 15ft level. Anything higher you might as well stay on the ground.

As far as I'm concerned. . when no one else is flying, you can call your flying anything you want. . .

Notice how much fun we are having. . .

Sleepy, as proven in the last pic. . you OWE a lifestime subscription to FG for all this hard field work, compuer time, and video/picture taking.

These are pics from the first BIG crash of the Huckfest. . notice there is no airplane involved.

Turns out, on Tuesday Night some guy with a roll-back wrecker, with a Lexus on the back, came around the corner next to the field a BIT too fast, and skidded out of control into the enrance area of the field. If this is what it did to bushes, the ditch, and some telephone pole sized posts at the entrance, imagine what the wrecker looked like. . .
