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

[Steven Maxwell]

 Glad that the Chi town gang came to your contest, how long had I tried to get that to happen. I remember when the Signal Seeker had only 7 for one contest and 12 & 14 for others just great to see 30 at a local contest besides Shootout & Championships. Steve Maxwell

It even got windier after everyone left. Andrew and I stayed so he could practice a couple more unknowns in preparation for the World's. Sure wish I could figure out how he makes 30 mph winds look like 5 mph! Anyway, that was pretty much our last chance for practice before Portugal because this week will be filled with Papa Jesky crating Andrew's planes up for the flight out on Friday. BTW, the heavy wind we flew in on Sunday was just a prelude to the storms that came through Sunday night. Something like 60,000 people lost power including me. I'm on generator power as I write this. All in all, it was a great contest and I hope everyone had as much fun as me!

I also want to point out how great it is to be around Andrew.  Here's a guy that just loves to fly RC and it's very contagious......   What a wonderful young man to be representing our nation!

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.

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.
