Default Thursday 2009 Tucson Aerobatic Shootout!

GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOD MORNING TAS FANS!!!!!
All righty, it's 6:45am and after a nice sleep (yea right, Kiwi the chainsaw kept me from that!) Kiwi and I are heading out to the TIMPA field now. Pilots meeting is at 7:30am, and wheels up should be shortly after 8am.

We will try to video at least two pilots from each class, as well as interview any vendors that show up.
Lots to come guys! W

e will update todays story with a few pictures and any scoring updates through out the day, but mainly we will be focusing on shooting pictures and videos.

So check back often, we will get as much as we can!

I have heard that the signal at TIMPA is weak and barely supports uploads of pics.
