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

"Hmmm....time to tell my wife how much I really love her.  She always
knows what that means......"

I'm glad that I'm not the only one who uses that ploy.

I had a mid air about 3 years ago so I feel your pain.

Yes, great contest!  In between all the eating, we did get some flying
in.  It was good to get out there and see everyone again.  This was the
first contest I could get to, and I am looking forward to the next few
as well.  I could have done without the mid-air though.  Brio #1 is a
goner, but the radio system, except for the battery, seems OK as does
the engine.  I will check the engine thoroughly, mount everything in the
backup Eclipse and put everything through its paces.  Brio #2 did look
lonely on the table though.  Hmmm....time to tell my wife how much I
really love her.  She always knows what that means......

Indeed a super contest and I think a great intro to highly competitive
pattern in the US for Ethan and I. We'll definately bookmark this one.

Mark, the pleasure was all ours...and we are particularly appreciative
of the warm welcome from Tim Jesky and his entire family, Bob Kane and
helpers, the other competitors and the very colourful Chicago group.

Of course Andrew's flying was the icing on the cake!!

Hope to hook again...
Best Regards
Colin.

I second (or as I see the email streaming in, 3rd and 4th) all the thank
you's to the weak signals club for this contest. Amazing facility, and
of course a great event. 

SERIOUS tail wind on the way back to cleveland.  I'm guessing the
Chicago crowd driving straight into it got slightly poorer mileage than
I did.

Thanks again, and I'm looking forward to seeing everyone at the D4
champs in Cinci!

Oh, and a pleasure to meet Colin Chariandy and his son Ethan from Canada
who made the trip for their first US contest.  Hope to see you both
again!

I just returned home from the Weak Signals Club contest. Talk about
contest conditions. Steady rain Saturday until 3:30PM, but fortunately
once the rain did stop the wind blew about 25mph straight across the
runway to dry everything off. Today there was no rain, but stiff winds
all day long and temperatures in the low 90's for the first time this
season in Michigan made for some challenging conditions.

We did manage to get 2 rounds in Saturday afternoon and two more rounds
today. Results:

Sportsman:

Bruce Herider (No flights)
Tim Jesky (No flights)

Intermediate:

Ron Hansen
Jim Gruntkowski
Mike Gaishin
Gary Stephens
Loren Noyes
David Cook

Advanced:

Bill Pritchett
Bob Condra
Ken Alexander
Anthony Abdullah
Mike Darr
Mike Murphy
Ethan Chariandy
Charles Williams (no flights)

Masters:

Verne Koester
Brenner Sharp
Bobby Satallino
Chris Moon
Mike Cohen
Mickey Losardo
Bob Kane
Frank Del Giudice
Doc Villa
Dennis Bodary (no flights)

FAI:

Andrew Jesky
David Snow
Mark Atwood
Colin Chariandy

Thank you very much for those contestants who came out and braved the
weather.  Thanks also to my co-CD Tim Jesky, his lovely wife Linda (for
the food, scoring, and Friday hospitality), Heather Kaluf, Cindy Darr,
Monique Losardo, Margetta Abdullah and anyone else I might have missed
who helped out with the food and scoring.

Hope to see you again next year.
