Pattern in not dead in D3!  We had 35 contestants even with some
habitual competitors not being able to attend.  We easily could have
been in the 40 range.  Thanks to everyone who attended.  Thanks to Emory
for CD'ing, Melissa H. for contest scoring, and Mike H. for providing
the grand-daddy of all sportsman prises!  
 
Due to some rain and lingering low-ceiling, we simply could not get
started by a reasonable time on Sunday and a vote was taken to call the
contest with no official flights on Sunday, although some practiced
below the ceiling to check it.  Thus, FAI did not get to fly F07.
However, FAI competition was really good.  Troy Newman won 4 rounds.
2nd and 3rd places were swapping every round between the other FAI
pilots Jim W., Ryan M., Joe W., Cameron S. and Lamar B.  
 
Thank God we are rid of the Masters sequence, and everyone is looking
forward to flying the new sequences at the Tangerine December 9th and
10th.  District 3 has a very strong FAI field going and it will be a
battle to gain any placing in future contests.  If you dork a single
maneuver or get a string of 7's, someone will else is going to take the
round.  We missed Tony S., Ron E., Jason S., Juan R., Oscar C., Scott
A., Mike D., Humberto P., Dave S., Mike C., Bill R.,,  to name a few -
again - could have easily been in the 40+ range in attendance.  
 
In Masters class we had John F., Gregg G., and Jim I battling for 1-3rd,
with John and Gregg throwing down Nats-Round-Winning style of flights
(don't move up :-) ).   Advanced was only able to complete 3 rounds with
Eric and Mike battleing it out.  However, Eric took the "subliminal"
edge with his "Dragon-Slayer" shirt on Sunday.  John Lowe took the
"iron-man" award with 6800 miles driven this season, not including the
Nats and out of district contests.  John's point have been managed by
other fliers and he was assured that he needed to move up :-) by them.
 
Thanks to everyone who sponsored the gifts (Morgan Fuels, APC Props, and
Scott A.'s Foamy), everyone appreciates the support.
 
Jim W.

I agree, Greg. That was very nice of Mike. In addition to the fully
built Black Magic, he also gave a sheeted kit to the second place
Sportsman and a basic kit for third. Thanks again, Mike!

At the beginning of the year, Mike Hester had promised that he would
award a fully built Black Magic to the winner of this year's District 3
Sportsman. We finished the District 3 Championships this weekend and
just as promised, Mike delivered a beautifully built Black Magic to the
winner this year. I just wanted to publically thank Mike for such a
generous contribution. Thanks again Mike!
