Chris,

Yes, I had a couple people say they hoped me returning was a sign of things to come.  LOL  I had been gone so long, I do not think anyone expected me to ever return.  I am glad a did.  Dad and I had a ball last year and hope to have ALOT more fun this year.  I will have my trailer ready for my planes and an RV to tow it with, so we get to stay at the field as opposed to driving to and from hotels.  Always more fun when we stay at the field.  I have a couple people I am working on locally and maybe I can get the flying pattern too.  I am also trying to get Les Modlin back into pattern again.

Paul

  Nope, I did not fly at FARM this year.  I just moved back to Virginia in November.  I remember Dougie and Herb and Mike very well and flew at the Fentress NATS in 1988 I believe.  I bet we could manage to bring several people to a Chesapeake contest if you have one.  The first time I brought out my pattern plane to the local field in November, I had 3 guys approach me and said they wanted to get into pattern, so I am very hopeful we can grow some more interest here.

    Chris,
    So far it seems ALOT of people would be interested in a contest in Chesapeake again. I am not sure how much help or interest my club will have but I will start trying to get some interest builot up. If I do have a contest I may need some help running it if I cannot get enough club interest. I will do what I can. I am not a CD at this time, but will look into that too. I think the club has a CD that would help though, I just need to talk to him. I flew with Dougie and Herb Consolvo and MIke Engalis. They are LAOT of the reason I flew pattern in the beginning and why my love of pattern brought me back in 2007. Did you fly at the Farm contest this past year? I can't place a name with the face. Sorry of we DID meet. LOL

      Paul:

      If you have a contest again in Chesapeake, I will be there. I remember 
      going to Fentress back in the 80's with the Consolvo's and Mike Ingalls 
      being from the area. Since we are reminiscing, I remember the PGRC 
      contest in Bowie, the Sweet Air in Baltimore and the old DCRC in 
      Rockville. All in Maryland. York, and Warminster in Southern PA, and 
      Richmond and Chesapeake and Arcola in VA. Out of all of these, we have 
      the NVRC held at the FARM club left and I am a member of the Farm club 
      now, so I will be there this year.

The sun, trees, and concrete runway have always been a problem for flyers not used to flying there. Although I have seen some great bike/umbrella action on the Fentress runway. LOL
