<p class="MsoNormal">Thank you Jim!!</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">There is a quite a bit of backstory that Jim would probably never tell. Jim first envisioned hosting an F3P contest more than a year ago when a local club gained regular access to an excellent indoor flying site in Schenectady, NY. After
getting several club members actively flying aerobatics, Jim was able to negotiate a full days use of the site at a very favorable rate, such that an F3P contest could be hosted. I know Jim started working on this specific event in the fall of 2017 – figuring
out logistics, recruiting helpers and workers, and chasing down an endless number of details. Without his tireless efforts, the event would not have happened.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">As I look forward to attending Jim’s well run pattern events every summer, I hope to attend more indoor events in Schenectady.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Regards,</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>

<p style="margin:0in; margin-bottom:.0001pt"><span style="font-size:12.0pt; color:black">We had two certified judges who only came to judge and not to also fly.</span></p>

<p style="margin:0in; margin-bottom:.0001pt"><span style="font-size:12.0pt; color:black">Not only did he judge, Lance also provided a special runway to cover the artificial turf.</span></p>
