Cullman Contest

[Mike Hester]

Ahh retracts....ancient chinese secret =)

I'm not really worried about the runway, it's not that bad. The field is 
great, the contest is great, and I fly off worse regularly as far as 
surface. I just remember that one spot that if you hit it just right on take 
off was like a carrier launch. But with not being picked to death on 
landing, who cares. Get her up, get her down.
