skylord 1 #6 September 16, 2005 Judy, The races are great! Even today, on the first day of elimination heats, some great runs! I can't wait for the quarters, semis, and finals. This is a blast, and we need to make this a DZ.com event, and have all of us just jump in. Temps are moderate, winds a little high, but not bad. More later, you fiesty redhead, you!!

2fat2fly 0 #9 September 16, 2005 Weather was great through the time trials and today. I was disappointed that Dago Red didn't come this year and excited that Fred Cabanas (Pitts Biplane-WFFC) is flying the Conch Fury in the Unlimited Class. Fred will make the silver race if nothing breaks and may get in the gold. I'm proudly wearing my Conch Fury Racing Team hat and my Scarlett Screamer F1 shirt. Speeds have been low so far-but they always are at the eginning. No one wants to belch an engine early in the week. Voodoo had a mishap requiring a new prop and Mystical Power (T6) is chasing some gremlins but they'll get her running on time. The Snowbirds came in today and did some formation fly overs that were so tight that it put the Tbirds to shame. That's a few of the high spots. I'm catching my flight home in a few hours.I am not the man. But the man knows my name...and he's worried Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
