Thanks Scott for starting this thread and posting the pictures.
I'm hoping someone will post a photo of the scoreboard and
that the competitors will tell us about what they flew.
- Tim Stagg won with his Tsunami. See more in the 1/2A forum
- I landed second with my Focke-Wulf Dora. (1/2A forum article)
- Chris Fretz was third with the purple and yellow 1/2A pathfinder.
- Mike Londke was fourth with a foamy combat model and a very fancy .049.
The conditions were breezy but most planes managed the full pattern,
minus a lap between stunts and only four inverted. Scott wrestled his
reluctant Silver Lancer through the entire pattern and had the large ( 50+)
crowd of spectators cheering.
This event stirred up a lot of interest before, during and after the flights.
The quality of the planes was amazing. Most were built just for this event
and most were finished as well as the big CLPA entries.
I was concerned that the .061's would dominate and there were plenty of them
but Cox was equally as successful.
Let's see those pictures guys.
Cheers! - K.
