Totally unofficial stunt results.  Sorry for the weird color scheme -- I had to doctor it up to make it legible.

The problem with electric is that once you get the smoke generator and sound system installed, the plane is too heavy.

Tim was a judge all day.  I hope the picture above didn't reflect his vision :-).    Hopefully more clear below.  Thank you to Tim and many others who made the contest possible and great.

We had low temperatures and a precipitation that couldn't decide whether it was drizzle or outright rain.  Entries were low so we bumped everyone up to Expert and ran the Stalwart Three together as one class.

It was good flying in difficult conditions.

And yes -- I judged all day today, too, but you can't make much of that.

Helped by Jerry Eichten, Jim Cameron, and (oh I hope I have the name right) Bob Parker from Seattle.

Jim Cameron judged with me on Sunday with backup judging from Robin Gearn for the second round when Jim was called away.

Tim,
Thank you for judging and the Fireballs for hosting the contest.
The judging clinic was very helpful.
