Thanks Mike and Dennis from the chicago circle cutters
« on: August 17, 2008, 01:31:22 PM »
I just wanted to thank Dennis Vander kuur, and Micheal Schmitt.
During the Paducah contest, these two gentlemen helped me finally do the clover leave.
And gave me some advice as I get ready to start my first semester of college.

I also wanted to thank everyone who made the contest possible, we really enjoyed ourselves.
I'm also glad my old man finally beat me in a contest, but we'll see about the Memphis stunt classic, where we will both be flying intermediate.
Thanks again

Cheers,
Ryan

I will second that!!! Mike and Dennis are Top Guns in my book.
I want to thank them both for giving there time to help Ryan learn the cloverleaf. It sure made my day to watch Ryan do a clover for the first time.

Now if I can just get Ryan to teach me. <=

THANKS GUYS !!!

Ryan and Paul,
You are quite welcome. Seeing how much enthusiasm you both have for flying, it was a definite pleasure for me to provide help.
Mike and I have both been helped by many people during our journey to become better builders and fliers. Crist Rigotti, Allen Brickhaus, and many others too numerous to mention have helped us over the years. Just yesterday, at the Paducah contest, Jim Lynch generously volunteered to partially disassemble his gorgeous Super Ares and explain the hows-and-whys of its numerous clever features. We try to continue this tradition of control line flyers helping one another whenever we can.
Being parents with teenage children, it was also especially rewarding for Mike and I to see the close father/son relationship the two of you share.
 
Ryan, good luck with your entry into college.
Paul, keep practicing so you can keep up with "the kid".
Best regards,
Dennis
