Yeah, thank you Mr. Jim and others at the Pegasus club that worked behind the scenes to put this event on. I had a lot of fun flying this weekend and I really liked the food

Thanks again guys and hope to see everyone soon,

Actually Rob I got home about 6ish but I've been busy posting the pictures on my private website and getting the score and other pics to Roy for the IMAC site.

Well, Jim C stepped it up a notch and threw one darn fine contest if you ask me. Friday practice was a blast, Saturday was really well done then dinner was superb, and Sunday was really thought out.

The host club, Pegasus RC certainly made us feel like we were at home and the word is another is certainly possible for next year but I'll defer that to Jim and crew

OK so here is the pics I took

The Freestyle pics are at

http://gallery.me.com/bubbagates#101737

The typical contest pics are at

http://gallery.me.com/bubbagates#101730

They are not even close to the quality that Stan does for us, but they work

I have sent the scores for posting as well as the same pictures for posting into the NE gallery. I have sent the story report to Brian so he can do his usual fine job of writing the contest report.

The official pilot total was 26 pilots

Thanks to Jim, Brian, Dave and Pegasus for a well run, total blast of a contest

OH my how could I forget his lovely wife, if you had a chance to talk to her, she is loads of fun, thank you Melanie, truly

Just got home a short bit ago! 6.5 drive for me and it was totally worth it! Jim and the Pegasus club put on a first class event. Furthermore, considering it was their first IMAC event ever, even more outstanding! Thanks again to everyone that assisted in making it happen! I will definitley be back next year!

I just had a thought, I hope Jim remembers that when he orders a replacement for Alex's broken award, he orders a "sippy cup"

Wish I would have gotten that picture I had just put my camera down

I can't decide if Alex's new nickname is either "Butterfingers" or "Bull" as in "Bull in china shop"....

Sure you are welcome to fly at night. Some of the local club members may join in... As far as camping- No problem - just no facilites other than a couple porta john... There were a few that camped a few years ago at this event if I remember correctly. Feel free to tag any questions or comments on here for this years event being held on July 30-31. It is being run jointly between 2 clubs- the local Pegasus Club and the Frederick Model Aircraft Club. MD club using our field. Same food vendor as last time. I am CD'ing the event but it will be run and coordinated mainly by Brad Davey from Frederick, MD. I'll alert him to this thread so we can answer any questions.

Thanks!
Mike

Nope not a problem... Field is really not near any homes. We often get calls about UFOs around these parts when we night fly....
