Saturday at the XFC = BAD ASS!
Well guys just got back to the hotel after broadcasting for 14 straight hours (Is that a record?!?!?) and man what a day!
Amazing flying, amazing weather, what more could you ask for. Mother nature made up for yesterdays rain with perfect weather today. All the pilots seemed to really focus today, and the flying was superb. I could go on and on about the day, but we have to be back up in 5 hours and ready to do it all again so I will leave you guys with this, the top 10 pilots from both styles, these guys will battle it out tomorrow, anything can happen. 2008 XFC Saturdays Standings: Airplane: 1 - Jason Noll 2 - Andrew Jesky 3 - Kelly Gerber 4 - Chris Meier 5 - Terry Hahn 6 - Jason Danhakl 7 - Yuri higuchi 8 - Manuel Santos 9 - Tim Fulk 10 - Nick Maxwell Helicopters: 1 - Dominik Hagele 2 - Nick Maxwell 3 - Alan Szabo 4 - Colin Bell 5 - Bobby Watts 6 - Jamie Robertson 7 - Scott Gray 8 - Daniel Jetschin 9 - Jason Krause 10 - Jaehong Lee See everyone at 8am EST for SUNDAYS LIVE WEBCAST!

Re: Saturday at the XFC = BAD ASS!
I believe the wing design was to make the plane perform like one flown at a much lower altitude. If I am not mistaken he lives and flys at a high altitude making his plane perform different. Modifying the wing changed the stall characteristics allowing him to fly as if he was at lower altitudes.

Re: Saturday at the XFC = BAD ASS!
Did anyone get some video from the night fly show? If you missed it you missed one hell of a good time. Yuri's flight was nothing short of beautiful. To see that kind of precision and grace flown in the dark was absolutely amazing.

Re: Saturday at the XFC = BAD ASS!
Nice Job on the live feeds.
What caused Frank Noll's plane to crash? I couldn't hear it on the broadcast. |
