Its about  the PLANES man...

and the camaraderie....

and the smell of nitro in the morning...

and the travel....

and the food????

and the drink......

and the perfect 45 down snap on line into a perfect top hat.....   hah!!!!

and the field repairs...  helping others with field repairs...

and the after 5 flights my knees finally stop shaking...

and the stepping out of the camper at day break in Hot Springs and watching the fog lift...

and the beginning of a new sequence...

and the beginning of a new airship....

and the excitement of designing a new part....(for your PLANE)

and the anticipation of my first NATS...

  As I'm sitting here weighing several variables for this weekend; weather forecast, hotel cost, fuel prices, ect. . . . . 

   

  I would like to know what is the number one Motivating Factor that gets you up off your duff to pack up all of your pattern toys, drive 5-8 hours, shell out several hundred $$'s, risk a rain-out, then drive 5-8 hours back home Sunday night, get home at 2a.m., to start your work week all over again on Monday.

   

  What is the top thought in your mind as you anticipate going to a contest . . . is it the chicks?  The big money prizes?  Is it the thought of finally beating someone you've been trying to get the upper hand for years?  The oohhhs and ahhhhs you're hoping to get from your new 2005 model year Pattern Ship??  Figure out how well my new airplane flies?  See if my 5-year old pattern plane still "has it"??

   

  I guess what I'm trying to get here is: What gets you to go to a contest 5-8 hours away vs. spending the weekend at your local field or just driving to visit your flying friends at their local field?
