score board?

Dave_Trible · « **Reply #274 on:** July 22, 2016, 07:35:37 AM »

The weather gods have decided to be kind to us so far.
Doug, being on the receiving end instead of the giving end this year you may not know my policy is to NOT show any scores until all flights are done so as to prevent any impropriety or the appearance of to influence the hard working judges pool. I'll post the boards immediately after the last flight and again when all the scores are posted.

Howard at 5.29 after the triangles.........

Dave_Trible · « **Reply #286 on:** July 22, 2016, 08:05:29 AM »

Eric Taylor burning one in on Circle three. He's flying a little older airplane he had a little mishap apparently at home with a newer airplane with the wings coming apart in the center. We think it might have been a harmonics issue like I'm having with one at home.

Dave_Trible · « **Reply #287 on:** July 22, 2016, 08:07:24 AM »

If you're following along on the list Mike Mc Henry is just blasted off on four and Frank Williams is away on three

Dave_Trible · « **Reply #288 on:** July 22, 2016, 08:09:59 AM »

Mike is putting along strongly at 5.8! Franks Sidewinder at 5.1. I checked it twice- looks slower but sure bet.

Dave_Trible · « **Reply #289 on:** July 22, 2016, 08:12:32 AM »

Wish I could get over to advanced but it's moving along quickly here.
