[RCSE] WSM 2006 - The Day After...

2006-09-26 Thread Mark Nankivil




Greetings All -

I am glad I took today off after spending nearly a week in Muncie. A
ton of e-mails to go thru, plenty of unpacking and odds and ends to do
as well but I'm glad to unwind a bit and think back on the weekend
before going back to the regular day job. This past weekend - from
practice day (of sorts) on Thursday to the awesome ending on Sunday
with the flyoff rounds were the best of memories. I have no doubt that
in our facet of the R/C World, we have the best people to be around
across the board. The best of the best down to us wannabees are
wonderful people to be around and 4 days like this is a lot of being
with this great group. 

My thanks to all of the people who
worked to make this event go off so well even though the weather
conditions weren't what one would think of when R/C Soaring comes to
mind. Having said that though, these were the conditions that do
define the best and the 10 finalists and the flying that went on
throughout the weekend, but especially during the 6 flyoff rounds,
prove that. T'was not a landing contest by any means!

Looking forward with anticipation to the next one! 

Good Health and Good Lift! Mark

For those who are not competitive minded, the Muncie site is open year 
round and if there's not an event going on, they can fly in the wide 
open spaces. Pretty cool if you ask me. If you're an AMA member, it is 
partly yours


Heck, I’ve used a year’s worth of bandwidth writing this up. I did not 
write this to torque anyone off, just to express my views. As the 
Montgomery Gentry song says, “you do your thing and I’ll do mine.” 
Find enjoyment in what you do and be sure to share that with others and 
it will all work out just fine.


Good Health and Good Lift!

[RCSE] LSF NATS '05

2005-08-01 Thread Mark Nankivil

Greetings All!

I wanted say thanks to the great LSF gang who put together a wonderful 
week and made my two days as Unlimited CD smooth and simple.  It's been 
6 years since my last NATS and it sure was great to see old friends, 
make new ones and simply get back into the environment that comes about 
from having that many glider guiders in the same space doing the same 
thing.   Next year I need to go back and fly too!
