I didn't see the Northwest Regional results posted, so here's the link: http://www.flyinglines.org/nwregionals.10.html (http://www.flyinglines.org/nwregionals.10.html). Hope I'm not being redundant. After repairing my Chipmonk after the crash during practice, I managed a 2nd place in Intermediate CLPA. Maybe next year I won't crash.

Good on ya! Always a good lesson when you can podium after a set back like that. Being persistent without getting rattled can be a good quality for stunt.

Thanks Eric, it really did redeem the weekend for me #^ And I really have to say that the event was put on very well, good judges and events going on as scheduled. Not an easy task given all the different events going on at one time. I'm really looking forward to 2011.

You have just carried on a longtime stunt tradition: Crashing new, unproven plane on test flight just before a contest, patching it up, entering same contest with minimal preparation, and bringing home a trophy Congratulations! 8)

Next time, go whole hog, and run your car over your airplane, then fix it. That's a sure-fire NATs winner, I hear.

Did that once as a salesman, backed over my own briefcase. Don't think I'll try it with a plane. Have you by chance??

Don't get Bobby started again. The story has been told and retold so many times. Another one is to rebuild after picking up handle wrong. Then everyone there helping that night to put the plane back together while trying to get the pilot calmed down.
