Default 2009 Tucson Aerobatic Shootout Coverage starts Tomorrow!

Hey guys,

I'm wrapping up as much office work as I can today, and will be heading out the door at 3am tonight to hop a plane over to the Tucson Aerobatic Shootout. Kiwi is meeting me at the airport and we are heading over to the TIMPA field to start rocking pictures and video.

So grab a chair, log on to the Giants and get ALL the TUCSON AEROBATIC SHOOTOUT coverage you can handle! Hundreds of pictures, and as many videos as we can get uploaded each night featuring all the classes, and lots of sequence videos. So all you IMAC guys can study the best, or perhaps see your local hero fly a round!

See everyone at the field tomorrow!

Sweet! Re: 2009 Tucson Aerobatic Shootout Coverage starts Tomorrow!

It would be nice to see what these guys are flying posted! Like they used to do at the TOC?
Plane
Manufacture
Engine
Prop
Exhaust
Servos
Batterries
Flying Weight
Just a thought!
A great thanks to all who put this on and the coverage here on F/G!
Thanks Guys!

Andrew's is now the Godfrey from Daniel Rathbun and Chip's was going to be Jason Noll's Ultimate but is now Russel Stohr's Ultimate

Everyone misses a good crash...lol. JK. I just haven't been into the GS stuff lately. Maybe next year since the Team Trials will be over in July. But with the Worlds just being finished, there was no way I wanted to put myself through 2 major contests this year.
