Default Tucson Shootout 2006 Raffle Plane

Hello,

Its comming to that time of year to get some opinions on what plane to do for the Tucson Shootout 2006. In 2004 we did a 42% Velox Veolution I, in 2005 we did a 42% Extra 300 mid wing. So I will ask all you guys to email me or post your thoughts. I will be making a final decision just before Joe Nall. So ok guys give us some opinions.

John

I think the model has to be one of Aerothech's models.

John,

Any model from your stable is a winner. The fact that Aerotech DONATES the built model is badass enough! It is great to have support from companies like yours.

I too think that just the fact that you donate a built plane is awesome. Good Job! With that being said I think that you should do another 300 mid wing. Awesome plane from what I have seen....
