Hello All,

Everything is ready for this Saturday's Flying and Judging School in Parkton,MD. It looks like we have a good turnout and I want to thank everyone ahead of time for coming to this important event. Your flying and judging will both greatly improve from attending. If you have not signed up yet, please join us - it's never too late.

Ty Lyman has volunteered to come up for the day to instruct and has just come back from the National IMAC Judging Instructors School with the lastest and greatest. He is an exceptional instructor and pilot and will make this school something you will not want to miss.

I encourage you, if you get a chance, to do a bit of reading through the rulebook ahead of time. We will be cramming 2 days of knowledge into 1 day. We will be getting started at 9AM sharp and coffee and donuts will be ready.

We had a great Flying and Judging School with 20 people attending this weekend. I would like to thank everyone for attending and helping to continue to improve judging in the region. I think that we will have alot of very qualified new judges on the flight lines this year with two very sucessful Judging Schools.

I know that it is alot to take in, but you will see that it's enough to get you up there in the chair and your judgig skills with grow with expierience and time. And of course, it is not a one time thing. I really encourage everyone to attend a Judging School every year as you will pick up on more detail each time as the basics of judging become second nature to you.

I hope that everyone had a good time. I know for me it was really great to see alot of friends again and I'm totally excited to get flying at CAPI.

Although we focused on the judge's point of view, I hope that you will find your scores getting better by knowing the judging criteria inside and out. It really does make a difference.

Thank you to the Radio Control Modelers of Baltimore, Steve and Iyone Stanton, Ty Lyman, Neil Westdorp and all that attended for helping to make this happen.

Happy flying and I'll see you on the flight line!
