Title: WKSI Pictures
Post by: Zuriel Armstrong on August 18, 2009, 03:23:00 PM
A few shots that I took.  I saw several more cameras out and maybe someone else will post.  It was a fun contest and I look forward to it again next year.

I really like Sparky's SV100.  He let me take it for a ride....talk about a cat on a hot tin roof.  

Thanks Robert

Thanks for the pics Zuriel!  That is some gloss that is on Matt Neumann's Stuka, it looks like a colored mirror.

Robert, what happened to the Viper, I thought that was your best flying plane? H^^

Well it has some built in trim isues and besides I would never fly it on grass. After a control system redo you might see it again.

I'll second that, Allen and Charlie ran a great contest (if my car hadn't thrown a rod on the trip home it would have been a perfect weekend).

Maybe I missed it stated somewhere, but where and what was WKSI?  Obviously in the Midwest somewhere but otherwise????  I'm betting that when I see it I will go "Doh..." :-[
