April 21-22 (looks BIG)</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Hi fellow pattern addicts and future pattern
competitors! <BR><BR>I want to invite ALL of you to the GMA contest on April
21-22, held at the GMA field in Ball Ground, Ga. just north of Atlanta. The
initial head count looks pretty good, so this may be one for the books. My ace
scorekeeper (Melissa) will be doing the scoring, so you know you'll get your
scores practically before you have time to put your transmitter back in the
case. <BR><BR>The field will be open for practice starting noon Friday, so
come on down and get some practice and feedback. if any new pilots are
interested, I'll hold a seminar on Friday afternoon, so don't be intimidated
if you've never done it before. You'll know exactly what to expect and exactly
what to do. The flying part is up to you, however. If you've been toying with
the idea of flying in a pattern contest, this is the perfect opportunity to
get your feet wet. I will be actively seeking to hook up new pilots with those
more experienced, if wanted. <BR><BR>Registration will begin on Friday, so
please get that part done early if you can. The sooner we get that part done,
the sooner we can start flying Saturday! The official pilot's meeting will be
at 8:30am on Saturday morning, April 21. The plan is 6 rounds, weather and
time permitting. FAI will fly P and F. One F round WILL count. So get to
practicing those Ss and rollers!! <BR><BR>We have strong rumors that a few top
pilots will be in attendance. The Shulman brothers, Bryan Hebert, possibly
Dave Lockhart to name a few. (Not putting you on the spot guys....much...LOL)

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Chris Hinson of Extreme Flight has generously
offer a full Vanquish package, plane, motor and controller so that will be one
of the many extras for a prize or raffle for the world team (not sure yet).
Also we are working to get some World team merchandise on hand as well. We
should have a strong showing from suppliers so it should be a great
opportunity to check out some new stuff.</DIV>
<DIV><BR>One note to consider: I STRONGLY advise you to ignore the weather
forecast unless a hurricane is over our head. April in Ga is pretty wild.
Those in attendance last year know what I mean. It could do anything, but over
the course of the weekend, we will get the rounds in if at all possible. We're
having a warm early spring so who knows. Last year you'd swear by the forecast
we couldn't have flown, yet we got all 6 rounds in. So don't fret, make the
drive!! (or flight?) <BR><BR>I have a flyer posted here: <A

<DIV><BR>Feel free to contact me for any additional info you may need. My cell
# is on my site, (<A

email addy is <A href="mailto:kerlock@comcast.net"><FONT
color=#00265e>kerlock@comcast.net</FONT></A> <BR><BR>Come on out and let's
break some attendance records!!!! This is a good chance to make a statement:
pattern is alive and well, but only if you come fly it!!! you guys from the
Carolinas and anywhere within driving distance need to come down for a visit,
it should be quite a good time. I promise we will deliver a world class event,
and one you won't soon forget.</DIV>
