Re: USRA Nationals - Parker Wrapup!
Hay Max.
I helped show your Bro In Law around in Parker and took a ton of pictures for a couple magazine articles I will be writing (and for the pilots). I am sure he will talk to you about it but if you would like some pics I will send you a few. I took over 2700 photos of the races and didn't miss much. |

Re: USRA Nationals - Parker Wrapup!
I am sending Max the works for him to post whatever he wants. I just finished going through 2700 photos and narrowing them down to 894 pictures of one and all, people, planes, trophies etc... I have two of the mid-airs captured on (digital) film that will be among them.

Re: USRA Nationals - Parker Wrapup!
Here are a few pictures. One being, one of the mid airs. If you cant blow it up email me and I will send it to you full size. You san see various parts of the two airplanes that were involved falling from the sky. I will leave the other to Max, It has two planes totally destroyed with two flying through the "Dust", Ya they hit so hard there is airplane dust in the air.
I want everyone to know everybody in Parker treated me like family and if you ever want a great time go to one of these races. Even though some lost awesome airplanes they still had smiles on their faces. A totally class A #1 group. It was my pleaseure taking their photos. Mike |

Re: USRA Nationals - Parker Wrapup!
Parker was my first USRA experience and I must say I'm hooked. Had a great time and met some great people. Can't wait till next year.
Here are a few pics I took this weekend. Mike F |

Re: USRA Nationals - Parker Wrapup!
Mike,
I knew that you would get hooked! Thanks for posting the pictures of my recently deceased Blind Man's Bluff. 45 lbs Aero 200 on Alky. Its all junk now. But what a ride! The most fun you can have with your pants on! Last action picture is when we tried to start with the pressure dump open I fixed it and she fired right up. RIP. Sparky |

Re: USRA Nationals - Parker Wrapup!
Me too! I've been checking more than once a day. As our team photographer I took a few hundred pics that weekend but there are none of me! I've been hoping to find a few of me to show my kids.

Re: USRA Nationals - Parker Wrapup!
Hi all. I spent a couple days making the CDs I promised to the pilots and they are done and in envelopes. I just have not received the mailing list from Denny. I am really sorry you dont have your pics yet but nothing I can do.
There are aprox 1100 pictures for everybody on two CDs. If anybody else would like CDs I can make and send them for say $10. Just email me. It cost a lot to do this batch already or I wouldn't ask. I also tried to download a bunch here and they would not go. I ziped and did everything Max asked but to no luck. Anyway I am sure Denny has the list in the mail and your CDs will go out as soon as I get it. I really wanted you to have them a few days ago? Oh well, they are a coming! Mike |

Re: USRA Nationals - Parker Wrapup!
Leiserf.
I took 2700 pictures @ Parker  If you send me a picture of you I will find all the pictures of you and your airplane and send them to you. With 2700 I had to shrink the number going to the pilots, so some of your pictures might not be in the CDs anyway. I did try to not leave anybody out but!!!Just let me know and they are yours. That goes for anybody. Mike |

Re: USRA Nationals - Parker Wrapup!
Yeah!! That's me!
 Thats my Dad's plane however, I was flying the beat up #33x dominator. Thank's Mike, I'll take any you care to give. I'd wouldn't mind a higher resolution version of the Sparks/Easterday midair. I think Tim need's a nice framed 8x10 glossy! As a picture framer by trade, I can help him out!Mike F |

Re: USRA Nationals - Parker Wrapup!
Hey Mike....Maybe you could send a CD to Max and he can put the pictures up?
Thanks again for your effort! KMac |
