I have been asked to post some about the sportsman class. I don't look at the scores, so that makes it tough. Everyone seems to be flying well. The unknown today was pretty standard. We flew 1 unknown and 2 knowns. There is almost no way to describe the field at Johns. Simply amazing. The dinner last night was shrimp, scallops, pork tenderloin, and some more. The contest is being run very well. 2 minute rule, 1 minute rule, all in affect.

Thanks to everyone for keeping up with this. Please don't miss it in two years!

Clover Creek sounds really cool.
A True old school TOC with the lower classes there as well. Man what a cool adventure. I bet the flying is just top notch.
Keep the updates coming.

Some info for you and the others about the airplane Quique has at Clover Creek. First, it is NOT a Python. This one is Ti-12. Ti-12 is a full size airplane we are now finishing up. The Ti-12 is based on our full scale Pitts Model 12 two seat design that we build and offer as kits. Python was the name we gave to ONE airplane not a type or style of airplane. Ti-12 is a name we have given to this ONE airplane. Not all monoplanes are extras and not all biplanes are Pitts.

The QQ airplane in the photos is a special "2 of a kind" Ti-12 model (primary and back up) and is powered by a DA200 on new MTW pipes. It is a work of art and Quique is very happy with it. QQAC has not yet specified the sizes of the ARF Ti-12 they will offer. I don't know what size he is thinking of making. For now, congrats to Quique and all those who made the airplane possible for a cool debut at Clover Creek!

Thank you for the clarification...I was mislead because of the single place canopy (or so it looks like ) Either way it should be a badass plane. Thanks...MikeC3D
