Default 2009 NBRC Napa IMAC

I've sent the IMAC web registration in to put a contest on in Napa on Sept 19th and 20th. Hopefully it gets put up soon. We used to have IMAC contests there in years gone by and the NBRC club would like to start having them again. It's a very nice venue for a nice relaxing event and the club will do a bbq for lunch on Sat.

I know hotels in the Napa area can get crowded but Vallejo and Sonoma are very close alternatives. Hope you guys can make it out.

Kevin,
Thank you very much for the kind words. I was VERY fortunate to purchase one of the Goodwine's AW 260's last month. With all the help from so many people this plane has enabled me to apply the information in a productive way. If all works out, I hopefully will attend the regional and fly the Basic class for the last time! I can't wait for next year. See you in Tucson, I'll be a spectator!!!!

Richard,

Thanks for sharing your photos, good job. We'll hook up after the Shootout.

A big thanks to CD Mike Stoner and Joe DeRenzi and all the NBRC club members that hosted us and did a great job. Hopefully next year we can get a bigger turnout at this great location nestled among the grape vines of Napa!

Dan
