Default Re: Holy Schnikies , Saturday was off the hook!

Just wanted to thank the FG staff for a HUCKING GOOD TIME. This was our first Huckfest and man, did we have a BLAST. This will definitely not be our last. We made alot of new friends and it was great to meet the FG staff. Mad-Max, SleepyC, Kitman, and of course Elie.
I want to extend a special thank you to Elie, your after hours party was outrageous. The food was great, the entertainment was incredable, and the stories, well I'll leave it at that . Hopefully we will make Ohio but if not, we will make sure we're back at woodstock next year. On behalf of the CAP 580 CREW, THANKS AGAIN. I have 500 photos to go through. I will upload some after I sort them out.

BTW The Cap lives to fly another day.

Wow, that was the best RC event I've ever been to. Great food, entertainment, flying, and the greatest after flying party I've ever been to! There is no way I'm going to miss this next year. I have video I will upload, but first I need to find out how to turn DVD into windows media player or youtube format.

Also I want to thank everyone who was involved, it turned out great and I'm looking forward to next year.

If anyone has a video of the Cap 580 pool dunk and/or of the K/E mid-air, we would love to see it. Also the Bill Hempel, if someone has it as well. Thanks, The CAP 580 Crew.

Awesome, I agree.

Great flying this weekend! Any lower and you'd be picking grass out of your SFG's.

Elie,

It looks like Binghamton is going to be cold and damp this weekend.

Any chance you can pack the Belly Dancer and the Snake in the Snap- A- Trailer to heat things up if we get too cold?

Or you could just bring the leftover booze!

Ira

here is a picture sleepy took of me just before i saw him out of the corner of my eye. it was a good thing for justin he snaped the picture as i was going to push the little squirt down the stairs. i then came quickly to my senses that just becuse a 6 year old can fly better than me ,he does not deserve the stairs..... then i asked him to rub some of his carma on me and bam i still cant fly as good as him.....
