Map on IMAC site shows the field to be up Horne Rd. North of Benton City. Is this the same field used for judging school?

Is it OK to practice on Friday?

Put in Horn Rapids Campground richland into the GPS and once you get there, drive a bit further down US Reservation road (map says about 1.4 klicks distance from the campground) and the field access road will be the first one you see on the left.

The coords to the access road entrance is

46.365654, -119.448804

There is a sign that says horn rapids park, and you can see a stand of tall trees off that access road. Thats the field.

I had really good chance to get to know you last year at the TAS. I think you even let me call a round for you! Your flying is really crisp and polished..just a little bit more power and speed! Great flying!
I think of your torching up the skies. Your giving ALL of us concern!... Don't move up to advanced!
If you can make a Canadian contest this year. We would love to see you here.
Many Respects,
Scott






You inspired me from the first day you showed up in yyc and whooped us all!
Heath issues or not.... your a gem of a man!
I'm so glad that I've got you as a friend!
Scott, Thank you for the kind and uplifting words. I really enjoyed having you call for me at TAS this past year. It brought back great memories of the interactions I had with pilots in the SH-2F & SH-60B helicopters I flew in while in the Navy. I really appreciate your friendship and support in my struggle with the health issues I'm dealing with. I can't wait until our paths cross again, it can't be soon enough my friend! Talk to you soon. Gale

Any of you know anyone heading to Joe Nall that would have room to take a plane with them? I have guy who wants to buy my plane and he lives in Orlando and would be able to meet at Joe Nall to pick up the plane. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks Clark and everyone involved at Higgins field for a wonderful weekend. I had a great time meeting new folks and reconnecting with old friends. 10's across the board on the event and the food. The NW IMAC community and all involved are top shelf.

Can't wait to meet up again.

Oh Oh Oh

Man, I feel like a NW IMAC dude.

Wait ten bars.

I think that is how the song goes right?

The shocking thing is that you are planning to fly unlimited this year.

I couldn't even read it for Scott let alone fly it.

The 123 AJ was ripping.

Thanks to all of you for attending. I had a great time myself.

Sorry to have missed all the questions, I unplugged when I headed to the field. Thanks Cry and others for helping out with directions.

Jeff, welcome back, now just stick around. Great to have ya. Not sure what song you are referring to, too old for my blood.

Rick, no idea...

Scott, get Gordon out there and maiden that PNW!!! That things looking great, on the edge of my seat to hear what he thinks.

How much rudder throw for spins?

I'm over rotating by a lot on spins. Thinking of trying reduced rudder throw. How much rudder throw do you guys use for spins? I guess it depends on the airplane but wondering what is typical.
