John,

Congratulations on your primer.  We have seen similar recent success with pattern primers here in Texas.

  Hi all,



  I just wanted to post a quick note about the recent Granite State Precision Aerobatics Primer that was held yesterday in Hudson New Hampshire.



  The weather conditions were great for this time of year 58-degreess, clear skies, and no wind (when we started) which changed to 15-20 mph cross-runway wind by the end of round 3.  All competitors had a great time and all brought their planes home safely.  The 7 pilots competing in the Primer were well coached and educated by Ed Alt, Rick Wallace, Anthony Romano, and by coach/competitor John Pavlick.



  At the height of the day, we had a total of 45 pilots, coaches, helpers, and spectators at the field.  The entrance fee for the contest paid for a modest lunch for the contestants, coaches, and helpers and covered the award plaques.  



  The battle for 1st place in Sportsman was a very close competition (just a couple of points) down to the last flight.  In the end of the day the standings were:



  Sportsman

    1.. Bob Perreault 
    2.. Chris Iorio 
    3.. Bob Barger 
    4.. John Lavery 
    5.. John Hayes 


  Intermediate

    1.. John Pavlick 
    2.. John Marien 


  A special award was given out to the "Most Improved" pilot for the day and that went to John Hayes.



  At least one contestant went home to talk to his club about hosting another Primer in the spring.



  Thanks go to the pilots, the coaches who traveled a long way to get here, the helpers, and to the weather for holding out for the primer.





  John Marien, CD
