Brodaks Day 1
« on: June 10, 2008, 09:01:48 PM »
The Brothers from Brazil made it in this morning with some beautiful planes, mostly Ringmasters. A few Ringmasters fell victim to outboard wing failure in todays winds. I watched a few practice flights on the Shark and one of the Tucanos from Brazil and whatever 4 strokes they were using sure had a nice growl. We had some showers move through later in the afternoon that delayed a few final flights in Profile for a bit but mostly affected the Fox racing

Thanks Elwyn,

Try to get as much detail from the Brazil gang on the 4 strokes as you can. Always curious about how others are running the 4 bangers..

Thanks Elwyn for my morning boost. This is the first Brodak contest that I have missed and I really miss being there. Thanks again.

Elwyn,
As usual "you da man". Your photography just gets better and better. As a snapshot taker, not a photographer I know the amount of effort needed to get the great pictures that you do.

Thanks for giving of your time and talent. H^^

Seems like Banjock was smiling more in the 4 up final last year.  Perhaps his wing wasn't crushed yet.....

THANK YOU Elwyn. I'm glad that you're there (and jealous) for those of us who can't make it-your pics are the next best thing! y1
