3. Buck

Please correct me if I am wrong.

Congratulations David!

Hi Bill,

Here's what I posted on Len's board a second ago.

FYI,

Just got off the phone with Muncie and got the basics of today's Finals and Walker Flyoff.  No numbers, just word of mouth placings.

1. David Fitzgerald,
2. Paul Walker
3. Brett Buck
4. Derek Barry
5. Richard Oliver (suffered a broken leadout on a pull test and only flew one flight)

Only Senior results I got were:

1. Ryan Young
2. Matt Colan

Apparently there were no Junior entries...alas.

I believe David won the Walker Flyoff but forgot to ask for certain.  Having watched Ryan critically last summer I doubt it was a cakewalk if David did pull it out.

   Ryan definitely made him fly all the flights but David won that comfortably, after all. Ryan did a fantastic job, he blew them out of the water in Advanced but Matt worked him a little harder today.

Hey Ted its Aaron not Bill  :)

I am sort of surprised Gavin didn't fly Junior, maybe he had to leave and go back home?

Either way how many is this for Dave now?

Congratulations to all.  Especially Dave and Brett.  Looks like local contests won't be getting easier any time soon!

Gavin could not fly because he did not build the plane he flew in begginer. His plane is on the paint
Stand at home. Now, I wish I would have got him to finish it before we came here. However, I would
Prefer he know the full pattern before he competes in Junior.

Oops!  Sorry 'bout that, Aaron.

I think it might be six for David but between him and P.W. I need my calculator to keep track.  We're seeing some of the best ever the last couple of decades (remembering to throw in Mr. Werwage for longevity; copping National and World titles over five decades!)

Happy to have seen most of 'em!

Ted

Derek,
You still have a chance at being the first father-son team on the Junior trophy.  I was pretty proud when both of my kids were on the Beginners trophy.
