Can someone tell me what the schedule is for Navy Carrier at the NATS?

Thanks,
Clancy

I see that everything is listed as (JSO).  Is this actually the case?  I think that Art Johnson was mentioning that they were seperate.  Any clarification?  I have a Senior that was going to try the Sportsman Profile and Skyray 35 Carrier.  BTW, what time does the Skyray 35 kick off?
Thanks,
John

John,

When my son won Jr. Scale at the Nats for the third time and received a Plaque that said "first in junior sport scale"  I thought of having a trophy made for him that was befitting a National Champion. I never followed up on that, but I always wished I had. 

If I were you I would make a huge deal of both of your kids flying, call your hometown and Muncie paper and have them interviewed, and have some nice trophy made for them denoting their accomplishments as Junior age class National Competitors and Champions.

When you win the Nats, you are the National Champion, period.
 Jr., Sr. or OP., it doesn't matter. If the other kids didn't show, too bad for them. Your's did.
The AMA doesn't really care about kids, as you know. They pay lip service. Those that have kids involved are the ones that care, so in turn are the ones that really bear the responsibility to show them what their performance means to us, and hence transfer that feeling to them.

Glad you are going to make it, as my boy has been "talked out of" going to the Nats. Good luck and have fun. With your children close to you, you've got it made, my man.

John,  I am so glad your young adults are still flying and wish them the best.  Chris, too bad your son was talked out of the NATS.  I remember an individual who's son wanted to go, but, Dad said it was too expensive for a little trophy.  I tried to convince him that it wasn't the trophy, but, the people and the friends they would make.  A moron at Church has convinced my grandaughters that they shouldn't be playing with toy airplanes.  Can't even talk the oldest into going with me to just help when I need it.  Anyway I hope to see the Paris clan at the NATS.  DOC Holliday

I originally asked about the dates of the NATS as I intended to be there.

BUT, The wife has developed a Knee problem and meets the surgeon on the 16th so I have canceled my NATS plans.  I may get to attend the C/L Scale in August.

Grace Paris did enter sportsman profile and did well. Her first flight she did hi speed, touched in low speed but made a landing anyway. Second flilght she got a good hi and a low but missed the last rope and skidded off the deck on landing. She looked very confident and flew well I thought.

Grace looked great out there and flew very nicely. She was a little surprised at the 55 pound or higher pull test, but did it. I think she'll catch the bug if we let her fly something a little hotter.

John, congratulations to you and your wife for two great kids. Sometimes these days one has to really wonder where the kids of today are headed. Glad to see they are participating and even if they don't continue they have learned some valuable lessons. See you at Signal Seekers.
