The problem with electric is that once you get the smoke generator and sound system installed, the plane is too heavy.

The N W Regionals is certainly on my schedule.  I'm not looking forward to the gasoline prices though.  It takes me 4 or 5 full tanks of gas for the trip.  Salt Lake City is a long way from anywhere.  I'm pretty sure that I have been to all of them except the first one.

Ahh yes the classic N.W Regionals.

Eventually it will be renamed "The second Nats"

I hope everyone gets joy.

Alas, neither Paul nor David will be there.

I doesn't sound hopeful for our BC stunt fliers either.

But, finally hold another NWR and enjoy the time together!!

Either he won't be there or he's been very underhanded about maneuvering me into running stunt.

I confirmed this today, Tim, you’re running stunt. Paul will not be in attendance.

Hi, this is Paul Allen. I'm being called away to London for a few days. Meredith, I'll call you when I get back. Hasta la vista, baby.

I plan on being there - which makes me wonder if I am missing something here...

    Go to Oregon and not have it rain? Sounds like a winner to me.

I bid the most but I can’t attend due to a scheduling conflict.

    Well, you missed the thread about it being postponed until May. See link below.

Was able to get Travelocity to simply change the dates of my reservation to next May.

Looks like nobody will be there this weekend! Dammit, Jim!!!

On the bright side, the city of Roseburg hasn't gotten tired of us yet, and some of us young guys will do our best to be there in May 2022. I am wondering if Paul will bring his freshly painted Dodge Magnum, and curious to find out whether it is  chartreuse and dayglow pink with a wavy black checkerboard stripe down the side. I'll bring a magnet, so I can check to see if the hood and trunk lids are real carbonfiber or faux painted. Where's the faux at?  LL~ Steve
