Sorry about you guys that can't make it. This has been a tuff year for many of us when it comes to attending contest. "Except Wayne".
Lew the only way you can come is you must fly like the rest of us. I used to tear up the sky, now I just stink up the sky.

I got this new and abused plane and I've been spraying Febreze on to keep it from stinking up the sky. Do they make an "Extra" strength, cause it's not working.

I was looking forward to meeting you Andy. The good news - is that there will be one less "Advance" pilot to kick my butt. As Dan Knippen said, it has been a bad year for some of us. Glad the Minnesota contingent will be in attendance. I am going to do my darnest to make the Minnesota contest next year.
