Many Thanks,

Done, here (https://stunthanger.com/smf/open-forum/action-at-tt-dallas/), not by me.

Here's the scoreboard, also not by me:

Congratulations to Chris, Richard, and Joe. Chris is a really good young flier. There are a LOT of "passes." Weather?

Congrats to Samantha, Chris, Richard and Joe!  Sounds like it took some chutzpah to make it through at all let alone make the team.  Well earned, you guys...um, er...and gal! y1 y1 

Gotta ask; was Joe flying the (in)famous bloated Ringmaster?

At last, a pay day for Richard.  Well done.  Parlez-vous, Francais, cowboy?

Any pictures of Chris' handle this time 'round?  Last one I saw was...unique!

Good on y'all.

Am I correct in thinking that this is the first time in many, many years that the American Team is completely made up of first time Competitors at the Worlds?

Congrat's to all Four!  You all came through in what looked like terrible conditions.

Best of luck to all in Eruope!

Well .... it is the first time in a while that all team members are running engines and not motors.

Thanks for sharing that video. I haven't seen it in a long time!!! We will see if the whole team has engines when we land in France ;) it's very possible but not guaranteed.

It was a Strega with a RO Jett .65. I think that was its only contest.

Hi Chris:

Didn't you also fly that model at the Team Trials the year before?

Kids! They can't remember a thing...  ::)

Later - Bob

I flew the blue one with a RO Jett 61 at the team trials and the red one with a 65 at the worlds. Yes us kids remember a lot. ;)

Hey, he remembered to take his flight box with him when he left the field Saturday.  That's better than some people your age.
