Regionals pictures
« on: May 28, 2018, 02:17:23 AM »
Well Roseburg was a good time. I didn't get a lot of pictures, but I got a few.

Orin's T-34c, Monocoupe and YF-12A


Some of the stunt entries


A profile stunt Corsair


Detail shot of the T-34C.  Note the exhaust covers


A competitor and his pretty plane.  Wish I had got his name


Got to meet a few people. Briefly met Paul Walker, and finally got to meet Brett in person. Brett, was my pleasure, wish I'd had more time to chat but I dared not get too distracted.

The profile Corsair is Pat Johnston's design and prototype build, sold to Gerald Schamp and then to Mike Hazel. The last picture is Jimmy Rohdes from SLC, with his Apterix (something like that, anyway!). Wish I could have afforded to go....  :(  Steve

I watched the Corsair fly, and I was impressed. I thought it flew very well indeed for a non flapped bird.
Might have to build one myself at some point.

Great article and lots of pictures.   Looks like it was a great weekend.   Thanks to all who make this happen.  Now if I was younger and it wasn't so far I would be there, but I have our local meet to support. H^^

I took a ton of pictures at the NW regionals.  I just need to reduce the file sizes.  I'll get them posted soon.  Great experience!

Uhhhhh if that's the bird you're referring to I think it's "Doe-Doe"!  They fly backwards I'm told!   LL~ LL~ LL~ LL~

Anyway I'd be willing to bet it was with a fabulously beautiful airplane!
