I am sorry to announce that the North Georgia Sky Rebels Contest scheduled for September 10,11,12, 2021 has been cancelled due to an outbreak of Covid in the Cherokee County area. In addition to that, several of the contest staff have tested positive for Covid and because of this we have no choice but to cancel the event.  We are sorry for any inconvenience we have caused you and please remember we are going have a go at this next year.

  I find it shocking how many have not gotten the shots to protect them selfs and others

[Perry Rose]

What I see not going on is the so called experts not telling us what we can do to protect ourselves other than the vaccine. What happened to ultra violet killing the virus, what happened to antiseptic killing the virus? Trump tried to get that across but the fact that he said it made the libs shut it down. Drink Drano they said. I use Listerine and play outside as much as possible. The VA got me the vaccine and I still have side effects but combined with the antiseptic and outside I'm mostly well.
  It's all about making you obey.

I sit here and wonder how they do the test for the virus?  A common cold will cause a high tempurature as well as the normal flu.  I have shortness of breath because I'm out of shape.  Took me four days to get the front yard mowed and trimmed to satisfy the dead beat that sit in his air conditioned office when he is not driving around in his air conditioned vehicle looking at peoples property.  He won't stop and talk to people.  Besides me being out of shape with bad back and knees that don't want to bend I had weather preventing me from mowing.  I guess if I was as rich as hin/her I could hire some one.  The last boy I talked to said usoing my mower he get $25.00.  That don't include trimming.  But I guess I wasn't lucky enough to have some one get me such a job.

 Sorry for all the people who were going to this contest as it has a lot of interesting events. I no longer fly but did want to go and watch all the guys flying. As of now is Huntersville still on??

The PCR test used looks for multiple DNA sequences specific to Covid.

Skeptics argue that the PCR test used gives too many false positives, but they are wrong.
Evidence of that is simple - when positive test rates in an area go up, hospitalizations and deaths track that rise, shifted by about 2 and 4 weeks.

To bring this back to model aviation, Kary Mullis was a high school classmate and pal of local combat flier Buzz Wilson.
