[NSRCA-discussion] A really big thank you to everyone who made the Weak Signals Precision Aerobtics contest a success

[Ken Thompson]

I can certainly see I missed another great contest...I miss flying with you 
guys up there in D4, even though I've made some great new friends down here. 
Best of luck to all of you at the Champs...hopefully I'll see you all again 
in the near future!!

Ken
