Thanks Rich and Sparky.  Was it as windy during the flying as it was during the filming?????  Sounded and looked miserable!

Super windy! I got blown out of overheads just like many.

Serious question, what happened to Bob Hunt? Looks like he did 1 flight and scratched all the rest. Did he crash (I hope not) or decide to withdraw (again, I hope note), or something else altogether?

Shoulder issues....he's headed home.

Dang! I've banged up my shoulder before (motorcycle SNAFU, my stupidity). I can sympathize. Hopefully, he'll heal well and be back at it posting 600+ scores in no time.

I talked to Bob this morning. He was in pain and didn't sound very good. I'm kinda concerned about him making an 11(?) hr drive home by himself. Hope he makes it ok and heals fast.

    Several years ago Bob told me flying this event & his Arthritis were not a fun combo.
