[Dennis Adamisin]

Huge congrads to David, he has always been a terrific flyer and hard worker.      

This has been quite an emotional year for him, I'm sure Bill is smiling. 

Nice work by the team too! 

BTW, I think Igor's 2nd place is the highest placing by an electric yet..! 

[Doug Moon]

Thanks for kicking some serious butt! 

I and many others are sure darn proud of the whole team! 

Thanks for all your work and dedication. 

Congrats to your personal achievements, as well as winning for the country!

Thanks again for working so hard!

"DAVE!!! "STOP!!! DON'T INHALE!!!

[proparc]

Igor Burgers's model shows an I.C. motor. Didn't he use an Electric? If not, someone is throwing down some jive lol.

Igor Burgers's model shows an I.C. motor. Didn't he use an Electric? If not, someone is throwing down some jive lol.

That model shown was from the PAMPA gallery was from some time ago...2004
The last photo is Igor's 2008 World Cup model...what a beautiful work of flying art.

[Bradley Walker]

That kind of brings home the time involved in getting that good...

I asked Bob G. what is was like to be the best in the world at something, even for a moment...  He said it was wonderful.  I bet it is.

Way to go Fitz.

[Igor Burger]

Yes Milton. I used electric power train, but installed in my old model from Sebnitz 2002. It is old, but well flying model in turbulent air :-)
