2012 SWRegionals results
« on: February 02, 2012, 10:08:56 PM »
Tucson's Cholla Choppers host the annual VSCs, AND the CL portion of the traditional SouthWest Regionals - which were the fabled Buckeye meets of the era from the end of WW2 to about 1990.

The results for the 2012 Southwest Regionals CL events are posted at:

www.ccmaconline.org/contest_results.htm

...except for the Combat events, which should come in shortly...

The 2012 SWR results link appears in a blue box, white lettering, about halfway through our contest results 'page.'

We had a lot of flying, and few to no crashes. John Wright did graze the paving with his model, but repairs let him fly it again. ONE Carrier model "deep-sixed" but otherwise no damage. (Again, not to mention Combat events, where collisions and premature 'landings' are part of the "fun.')

Well done Bob W :)

PJ,

Alfadawg was an air traffic controller. He stays unruffled, if terse much of the time.

...he barely flinched when he saw the final EXPERT score; Trostle's 561.5 to his 560.

Ouch...

Fantastic flying, anyway...

What did John Wright fly in OT?  Was it his Box Car Chief or a more modern plane?
