Other than a very frustrating flame out during what was shaping up to be a very solid round I was pretty happy with how I flew. I learned some very valuable lessons about exactly where to stand and how not lining your body up correctly can push every maneuver off center (thank you judges (you know who you are)). Those are the kinds of lessons you only get at a contest. I am more satisfied with a fourth place finish having flown well against strong competition than I would have been finishing first or second against a "lesser" field having flown poorly. All I have wanted my entire pattern career was to be competitive and I am getting there.</div><div><br></div><div> I felt horrible for Mike Murphy, he was flying the heck out of his new
Integral and threatening to take home the gold until he inexplicably went into YS purgatory. Didn't change any settings but all of a sudden couldn't keep the engine running. Two flame outs later and he went from battling for first to suicide watch. He was just about ready to write a check on the spot for an E-power set up. </div><div><br></div><div>Colin's son was flying very well. To not have flown the US advanced sequence much and to come with a small plane in gale force winds and do so well is impressive. If he sticks with it I will be waving at him as he leapfrogs me on his way to masters.</div><div><br></div><div>That's enough rambling for now, I gotta go finish the Hacker install in my new Integral!</div><div><br></div><div>See you in Quincy</div><div>Anthony</div><div style="font-family:times new roman, new york, times, serif;font-size:12pt"><br><div style="font-family:times new roman, new york, times, serif;font-size:12pt"><font size="2"

It was probably the best field of Advanced Pilots that will be seen at a local contest. Of course it could be said that the Top Three were also at the Nats this year. </div>
<div>I did'nt look at the scores but was really surprised with Colin's son, Sorry can't remember his name. He flew that Spot on 50 with a OS50SX and probably scored really well. Sometimes makes you wonder why we fly the big planes. Maybe compensating for something not sure what though.</div>

<div>It was a great time even in the challenging conditions.<br></div>
<div style="FONT-SIZE:12pt;FONT-FAMILY:times new roman, new york, times, serif;">Dennis,</div>
<div style="FONT-SIZE:12pt;FONT-FAMILY:times new roman, new york, times, serif;">I'm sorry you didn't feel well, it was obvious that you weren't yourself. I hope you feel better soon so we can get back to verbally abusing each other.</div>
<div style="FONT-SIZE:12pt;FONT-FAMILY:times new roman, new york, times, serif;"> </div>
<div style="FONT-SIZE:12pt;FONT-FAMILY:times new roman, new york, times, serif;">Thanks to Tim, Bob, and everyone else that helped put on the contest.</div>
<div style="FONT-SIZE:12pt;FONT-FAMILY:times new roman, new york, times, serif;"> </div>
<div style="FONT-SIZE:12pt;FONT-FAMILY:times new roman, new york, times, serif;">Oh yeah, I would also like to thank Brenner for completely disassembling his Integral to show me how he did his Hacker mount, and Chris Moon, Scott Pavlock <sp>, and Mark "the human Airtronics manual" Atwood for helping me finally resolve the throttle curve issues on my Axi powered Black Magic. And thanks to Andrew for reminding me how much better he is with my airplane than I will ever be. </div>

<div style="FONT-SIZE:12pt;FONT-FAMILY:times new roman, new york, times, serif;">Gosh, with as many people as I thanked you would think I would have won something. </div>
