[RCSE] md80
One day the pilot of a Cherokee 180 was told by the tower to hold short of the runway while a MD80 landed. The MD80 landed, rolled out, turned around, and taxied back past the Cherokee. Some quick- witted comedian in the MD80 crew got on the radio and said, "What a cute, little plane. Did you make it all by yourself?"Our hero, the Cherokee pilot, not about to let the insult go by, came back with: "I made it out of MD80 parts. Another landing like that and I'll have enough parts for another one."

Saturday Oct 7 1. Rich Burnoski 2. Paul Sherman 3. Bill Wingstedt 4. Ron Kukral 5.Jack Strother Sunday Oct 8 1. Paul Sherman 2. Karl Miller 3. Pat Crosby 4. Dave Campbell 5. Jack Strother Congratulations to Marc Gellart the 2006 OVSS overall winner! This guywas on fire all year with three 1st place finishes. He was tough to beat, Iknow from flying against him all the time. Interesting also was his weaponof choice: The Insanity. This plane has great hang time! Congratulations also to OVSS Overall Sportsman winner Pat Crosby ! You arean expert now, as you proved Sunday by finishing 3rd place.The weather started off cold and foggy both days but warmed up into the70's. The sky was a hazy blue with piercing sun and no clouds all weekend.The weird thing was there was there was hardly any wind if any at times. Thethermals were few and far apart both days so you could really get in troubleif you did not find some good air to work soon after launch. Another strangeanomaly that occured both days was the appearance of the floating spiderwebs. As the air warmed up so did the amount of webs and strands in the airby the thousands! Sometimes it got so thick it was good for reading thermalsand you could also see the shape created by the lift. Neat stuff. PaulSherman flew with gusto all weekend taking his Espada to the limits of thefield and working some really light air to earn him 2nd and 1st placefinishes. Rich Burnoski dominated Saturday with his Espada RL for the win.It was a really challenging 2 days of flying and this always makes for amore fun and interesting contest. It has been a another great year of flying in the OVSS contest series.The Man-On-Man format is alot of fun and it really makes it a soaringcontest (as opposed to landing) contest. Thanks to all the clubs and CD'sand people who hosted the events. Also a big thank you to John Diniz, MarcGellart, Horizon and JR for their donations and time. Can't wait until next year!

I loved how every time Johnny would show up at the field, he popped open the door to the truck and out would come Butch! He would race around the place barking his fool head off just to let everyone know the he and Johnny had arrived. H- PS He got my hat once!
[RCSE] R.I.P. Friend
To everyone in the soaring community, we have lost a dear friend and truly a clown at heart. I just got of the phone with Johnny Berlin. Butch passed away this morning around 11:00am. Butch was probably one of the neatest Dog's I have ever been around and he was always glad to see everyone ( and their food ). If ever there was a dog that personified the words Mans Best Friend it would have to be Butch. Please think of Johnny as you pray for those who are in need as he has just lost his best friend! H-
[RCSE] S-AVA
Guy's The link bellow is to the WMSS club site where Dennis Hoyles wife Jean's pictures are. Jean did a excellent job. Everything went well last night from the test toss to the flights after. The Spoiler is extremely effective and needs very little travel, the approach to the spot predictable and steady, no RES wobble. This weekend will be my first contest with the S-AVA and I'm sure it will not dissapoint! All I can say is WOW what a floater, I can't wait to get her ballasted up and see what she can do for speed. This thing is HUGE and nimble two words I never thought could occupy the same plane but the S-AVA is an anomaly a freak that I'm glad to own!! Harry http://www.rcsoaring.org/images/harrysAva/index.htm
[RCSE] Super AVA
I swore I wouldn't do this but I broke down and bought a Super-AVA. After seeing their performance at the Nat's it's hard to deny this planes ability to hang. Well after calling and asking if they had mailed the key separately for the sport tube (DAH!) and finding it was taped to the rear handle. I felt as though I didn't deserve such a gem of a plane LOL. I picked up a Yellow fuse with Violet wings, man is this thing pretty! After reviewing the contents of the Sport tube I was convinced that I had the makings of a great floater! I checked the link on Kennedy's site http://www.rcsoaring.com/docs/AVA_Instructions.pdfand found a very well written set of recommendation's using these as well as the instructions on the Kennedy site Iwas very comfortable with the direction I was heading. In just a few nights after work (around 8 hours) I have this monster ready for flight. I can't wait to get out tonight and give her a test flight or two! At 43oz. all up this is the most insanely light plane I have ever put together. I plan on taking several pic's of my efforts in putting the S-AVA together and will be posting these latter or I can send to anyone interested, just ping me off line and I will get them to you.

RE: [RCSE] Further 2-Meters thoughts
can I get an AMEN! I had the privilege to sign Lee's LSF paperwork for a landing, he is a great kid with a great group supporting him. It can never be said enough WELL DONE Ed and GUYS!! Harry -Original Message- From: Ben Wilson [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, August 01, 2006 9:24 AM To: Soaring; LASS Soaring List Subject: [RCSE] Further 2-Meters thoughts I don't think that 2-meter is in jeopardy, though I would like to make a few points to reinforce it's importance in the overall soaring world: 1. This hobby needs more youth(s) to continue to grow. 2. Youths (and many new soarers) don't have the experience or the money to fly big ships. 3. Soaring is and will remain a hobby where competition is part and parcel of the experience. 4. 2-meter at the NATS allows those new fliers to compete at a national level in an event that they alone (and not their plane) are the determining factor. Ed Wilson achieved something special this year: he mentored a young dude with a small ship (but big dreams) with the intention of taking him to the NATS. It's a great goal, and one that we think will keep Lee and others like him in this hobby. 2-meter at the NATS is the perfect event to show new fliers what soaring is all about. Since we already have, and will hopefully continue to have, a 2-meter competition -- all we need is more Lee's, right? :) -- ben wilson louisville area soaring society [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://thelocust.org/ RCSE-List facilities provided by Model Airplane News.

If the tasks are all the same, then why change to planes that have less functionality or lower capability? Even F3J contests are just TD with a man tow. So why are there different events for the same thing? Cross country is a distance task. HL has a completely different task structure. F3B is TD, Speed and Distance. F3B, 2M, Unlimited, (Scale Aerotow?) and RES are all the same tasks for the pilot with different planes, so why bother flying different classes to begin with?

RE: [RCSE] Some More Thoughts on the Nats- Event Director's View
Marc, We have had our differences, but if anyone attacks you for your commitment to your job their a fool! As for your lack of attention to the Nat's during that time, WTF you were their and did one H#!! of a job!!! You have absolutely nothing to apologize for. As for NOS, I think the turn out for RES was weakened by it not being at the Nat's. I also believe the reason you didn't hear any groaning about it not being flown is that everyone was to busy trying to concentrate on the task at hand. The LSF needs to be flexible this we know but please don't miss interpret the lack of complaints as a willingness to let it die. Harry De Boer RCSE-List facilities provided by Model Airplane News.

As the CD all I can say is thank you to everyone who participated 24 Saturday and 19 Sunday ,also to those who came and helped (Larry Jeffries and others). This was the most fun event I have ever attended. If you ever get the chance to get to one of the Woody typecontest it is a must. The format allows for more flying in one day then most get in a Month. Several pilots from the surrounding area asked when we would be doing this again and all I can say is not soon enough!! Ken Bates walked away with top honors both days and the overall, Greg Smith took best model Sat, Harry De Boer had longest flight at 1hr 20min 57sec on Sat. Sunday Bob Robinson took best model and Martin Doney had the longest flight at 7 min 57sec. From the times of the longest flights you can see the Saturday was incredible and Sunday was a struggle. I'm making plans to attend as many of these types of events as I can, but I will have to sneak in a Two Meter MOM now and again!! Harry De Boer LSF 6357 AMA 2343

I have a custom built canard skeeter, optimized for downwind turns and optimal thermal rotation relating to the rotation of toilet water and adjustable for flying above or below the equator. In addition it is equipped with skegs, skags, thermal sniffer, battery monitor, redundant battery pack and lost plane monitor. It has a custom designed airfoil which is likely perfect because I must be an expert on aerodynamics now as I have read at least two paragraphs of the instructions for X Foil. As soon as I work out the issue of the canopy air brake blanking out the tail on landing it will be perfect. Well that and the wing loading issue. www.polecataero.com 717-789-0146

RE: [RCSE] Soaring Nats Entries
90 percent of the pilots at the Nat's will never make the Team for the USA much less try out for it, so why are we moving/removing class's from their Nat's so the few may have more practice time? I agree we should have a Team but give them the time and place to do it right and don't diminish two events while trying to make one better!

This prevents some probable F3Xers from going for the following reasons. The Worlds are during the same week and transportation is a problem, packing is a problem. Risking the airplane during the same week is a too risky ... They would rather risk it during practice at the worlds (DARYL) . Time off from work . The problem is not only related to F3B, F3J suffers the same... but usually has more TD pilots willing to jump in. There will be more entries in F3B... This year there is the problem of getting new frequency modules for some too. Since some channels were not available to normal F3B'ers. Right now the Nats is the only F3B event in the country aside from the Team Selections... Should we just call it a day and say we won't compete in the worlds then? Becasue that's what will happen if the TS is the only comp The AMA has decided that if you don't have a minimum of I think 20 contestants then they won't support that event anymore. Remove the Nats and we are sure to drop F3B as a team event. Then the US will be a NO SHOW since you can't get there without recognition from the AMA.
