<p class=MsoNormal>It sounds like this kid would be a perfect candidate for a
new Pattern pilot! Somehow he found out about "F3P" but NOT Pattern
in general. How is that possible? When we start the discussions about
"Growing Pattern" and everyone wanders off to find the solutions
such as "make the sequences easier", "eliminate the weight
requirement", etc. please try to remember this message. :)<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal>Hey Kathy,<o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class=MsoNormal> I haven't flown pattern for many years, and only
at lower levels then. So I'm not that familiar with the
requirements/rules now. But,,,,, I do think I can put you in
touch with a couple of guys who can. One of which is a fellow club member<em>
Bob Richards</em> who had a very successful pattern career in years
past. He has returned to to R/C in recent years and he and his son Matt
have competed in IMAC together( pattern competition with giant scale
models) with good success. Bob may still have some good points of contact
in the pattern scene who could help your son Patrick. I'll forward
this e-mail to Bob.<o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class=MsoNormal> Also, I am forwarding this to Horizon Hobby Team
Member<em> Ryan Smith</em> of Greensboro NC. Ryan is very active in the
pattern scene now and I'm sure he would be more than willing to offer
advice or help to your son. Ryan has been very successful in pattern, and
currently involved on a world team level that is competing
for the USA team now. Another great guy in our sport who I feel could help
you and your son. Hope this helps. If you have any questions you feel I may
help out with, feel free to call me.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'>Mr. Larry
Lewis;<br>
I am writing on behalf of my son Patrick Frost age 17. He attends High
School in Greenville, SC. While searching for some information on remote
control flying I found your event "Children's Charity Fly-in" and
found your name. Sir I hope you don't mind me contacting you and I will try
to get to the point of my contacting you. Patrick has become interested in
flying F3P. He flies, electric motor planes and is a good pilot. We are
having a very difficult time finding anyone with any knowledge about
pattern flying. We are very limited because we have never become involved
in any type of flying club. The High School Patrick attends requires what
they call a Senior Project in which the student picks a project to explore
and report on at the end of eight months. My question to you is simply can
you help us with a name or any information on F3P at this point anything
and I do mean anything would be greatly appreciated and highly valued! If
he does not come up with someone to talk to in the next few days he is
going to have to choose a different topic which would be very disapointing.
<br>
I sincerely thank you for your time!<br>
