Banquet was very good! We had yet another fantastic dinner, actually awesome is more like it.
Many thanks went out to the event folks esp Tina and John.
Too many folks to remember after all that draft beer (burp).
Unknowns for Sunday look really tough. Toughest I will ever have flown. Advanced is a rough go of it also. I did not see any others yet.
New contest Sunday for the inv class.
Has anyone mentioned how great this place/people is yet?
