A gen. 1 wing replaced a damaged 2nd gen wing. He snaped show center and the gen. 1 wing blew apart. He was aware of the issue and knew the chances we was taking. He flew the bird around and landed it on the runway but it fliped over skidding a good distance. Ryan is a great pilot and did a good job of bringing the plane down as safely as possible.

finally home! we got to Light's house around 3 or 4 yesterday afternoon and i finally rolled into my place around 10:30 last night. i laid down and just woke up now!

what a great event! i am not missing this one again. the hospitality, the food, the friends and oh yeah, some BAD A$$ flying! Big Bird and Zang made for an entertaining pair with each other's planes at the close of the day on saturday. hey, lettin' off a little steam never killed anyone... atleast not at a fly-in!

it was a blast hangin' with John and Jared. my little 42% edge proto looks like a kid's toy when it sits next to those damn 60centers all weekend!

Here are two pics that I took with my phone. The first one is funny because of the story behind it.... This older man wanted to take a picture of Jason's P-47 to send to a friend of his, so he had Jason hold his dog's leash while he took the photos... Jason's face was price less!

The second picture is of Ben's night hucker. The led strips he was selling and flying were so bright, they would light up the ground while the plane was 20' in the air! Enjoy!

Hey did anyone get any night video?? That would be great to see.
The Snap-a-Crunch needs to be seen also.
I had a great time again this year and it was great to catch up with everyone again and make new friends. I am still trying to recover from all the action. Flying from 7am to midnight for four days takes it's toll.
Hope to see you all at the Ohio Huck Fest.

those L.E.D. strips are from www.xerogear.com we were doing some flight testing on different size planes with the led strips and I think it shows that it can be done and it is cool as heck. we had a blast with them. I will have my 35% decked out front to back soon.

does any one have video of the night stuff?

I have some night video, but haven't got it ready yet.. I am a complete vidiot when it comes to this stuff, so it will be really raw. No music, just flying. May take a day or two, I borrowed a video camera so I have to get the software and the power cable to recharge the camera..
Josh , Jared, Troy and Chris, as usual it was a great time and good to see you guys again.... Anything coming up in Ft. Smith?
