<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Mike,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2> I'll be at the GMA contest - I'll give you a
hand if you need it. This will be the first time for me flying
Advanced at a contest but I was in your shoes 3 years ago. The longest
journey starts with the first step. I'm coming from Connecticut (a bit of a
drive) so YOU have NO excuse for not being there! <LOL> If you can
get there for practice on Friday it might help you work out the jitters a bit.
Remember, it's all about "fun with toy airplanes". See you next
week.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><BR></DIV>Keith - Well, I DO know one guy that will be there, and he will
help me if I ask him to. He won the Sportsman points a few years back in our
district, so having him to coach me would be much better than just showing up.
They are having a clinic on Friday for first timers also. Maybe you are right.
I have to start somewhere and this contest (GMA in Ballground, GA) is only 45
minutes from my home. <BR><BR>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Mike, I strongly suggest entering the contest.
You'll have fun, will have an opportunity to get some excellent input, and
may be surprised that most Sportsman pilots are in the same boat as you
are.</FONT></DIV>
