I hope everyone had a safe trip home.

I just want to thank everyone that made the scale Nats a great success last week. We had 13 great machines and it was one of the biggest turnouts we've had in years.

Also, I would like to thank the 3 judges (Tim, Stan, and Don) for all their hard work and for Darrell helping me at times with the CD responsibilities.
I would also like to give a special shoutout to Mike (aka Grim) for all his PR work before the event and for his pictures and articles in the NATs News during the event. We all voted for him to be the new "Public Relations Director" for the Scale Nats.

I'm already looking forward to next year and I hope everyone else is too!

OK boys, it's onto Dalton next month! Hope to see you all there!!!!

Thanks again! Mark

Is there any danger of getting the results, or do we get to guess?

Well congratulations to Emile, if he could have borrowed someone else's heli for team Scale, he could have cleaned the board

And congratulations to all the others who took home a plaque, or even just entered for the fun of it.

Hi all, made it home safe and I hope everyone else did too. Thank you Peter, we had a great time. Mark did an excellent job for his first time as cd. Everything went very smooth and I am glaf to report there were no accidents. I know it was a tight race because everyone had great flights. My hats off to Mike (grim) for his encouragement for us to get attendance up especially since I was considering skipping this year because my machine would not be ready for this year. I am certainly I made the trip because when we were not flying, we were laughing and having a great time. We even had a last minute entry ( and I mean like last minute as in while static was going on lol ) and that gentleman had no regrets as he too had a blast amn a very good learning experience and I expect to see him again at the next one. I hope this year's turn out will encourage more to participate next year. Great Job Mark!

Made it home last night around 10:30PM I have never had so much fun in my life. It definitely broke up the monotony of flying Aerobatics for 7 rounds. Excellent job by Mark and everyone else. Truly great flights by all.

Hope to meet you finally at Dalton!

Thanks Mark and congrats to all the competitors. I watched some very impressive flying and it was great to have been part of the judging team. Thanks to Stan for your guidance. Mike, it was great to see that your efforts to bring out a few more competitors paid off. See y'all at Dalton.

Don

I'm cracking the whip to get the rest of these New Yorkers in my club to try something else and come out next year. I'll squeeze a few necks if I have too.
