We have pretty much destroyed the topic of this thread. I guess one of us needs to start the "Nats trash talk thread". It's about that time.

Speaking of "fold", my year old Impact I took to Bulgaria had one of the wing attach male fittings in the wing come loose during practice non Friday. It was on the lower inboard joint. I surmised what the noise was on its last flight Friday in the square eight and quickly got to level flight.

Removed the fitting, ground it clean of the glue, ruffed up the inside of the tube in the wing, and glued it back together. It appeared to work as it held together in the bad air on Sunday.


BTW, call.......Royal Flush!

Nothing has bees said about those "Not quite ready for Prime Time" fliers...the Advanced Class. A look at the first 3 places shows the different approaches competitors are taking on there way to the top. First Place went to Dave McCheyne from Canada. He was flying an immaculate Electic Saturn built by top Canadian flier Chris Cox. Second was a more traditional approach, a Randy Smith designed, SV-11 based "Olympian" built and flown by...that would be me!  Power is a Ro-Jett 61 RE. Third place was Arizona resident Gary Gingrech. He flew a Yatsenko built Yak 55. Like all the Yatsenko planes I have seen the corners were amazing and workmanship top notch.

and fourth was a Classic airframe, the Avenger,
built by me,  powered by a Magnum 53,,,

Hey that rhymed,, maybe I can be on Howards team now,, LOL
there was some pretty solid flying in Advanced,, and a LARGE entry,,

[Balsa Butcher]

Sorry to leave you off the list Mark - no slight intended. Your plane really does round out the list variety wise. For those who are familiar with this plane, it looks even better in person than it does in the pictures.

[Mark Scarborough]

No worries,, I just thought it filled out your comment,, top four, pretty much all four different aproaches,, now if I had a few more flights on the 109 ,, mayhaps things would have been different,,
and thanks for the comments on the Avenger,,

We've talked NWR,

But if you're talkin' the Nats,
It's all JCT.

Hope this doesn't get personal like I have seen some in the past.   Maybe time to shut it down.

Doc, if your refering to Tim and I,,we nudge each other all the time,, it is personal,, we love to flip each other chit all the time,, right Tim,,,

[Randy Powell]

Doc,

Trust me on this, Tim can take care of himself. Well.

[Steve Helmick]

Doc,

Tim needs coaching and some tachometer/NV training, but otherwise, that's true enough.  Steve

Doc, it's true.  Well, at least Mark is always flipping me "stuff" and I just reply in all innocence.

[Mark Scarborough]

innocence,, really,, naivety maybe,, but innocence,, sheesh,, next you will tell us that your worlds most labor intensive rebuild of a flight ready flight streak was all because it had issues or something,,,,,

Steve,, the tach training is for sure,, have you worked him on this,, I fear he thinks all my comments are part of my "harassment" or something,,

Tim, have fun buddy,, I probably wont make Puyallup,, but plan on August,, so you are safe,, well aside from on here,,,
