[RCSE] Davenport ISR Web Site Update

2005-06-24 Thread Michael Seto

Pilots,

I finally got around to adding some pictures to the www.davenportisr.com 
web site.  These pictures were donated by Randy Bullard and Kurt 
McCrum.   Check them out there are a number of really great pictures 
especially the sequence that Kurt captured of me slicing off Joe's tail 
boom (Sorry again Joe).


Also, the Davenport ISR Videos are now available.  Send me an e-mail if 
you are interested in buying one for $25 including shipping.


Thanks again,

Mike

2005-05-23 Thread Falarski, Martin
Davenport ISR 2005 is in the books and as some have already reported it
was full of exciting racing, plenty of crashes and near record speeds.

Special thanks to Mike Seto (VP NCSS) for setting up the event and for
acting as CD. Also special tanks to all the workers that helped make the
event run so smoothly and to all of our sponsors who contributed to the
worker's raffle.

Mike will be posting the results and filling in the details. We should
have a ton of pictures on the www.davenportisr.com
http://www.davenportisr.com/  web site in a few days. 

Finally, special thanks to Bud McCrary owner of Big Creek Lumber Co for
letting us stage the event at his site year after year. 

NCSS will be hosting this event again next year so start making plans on
what planes you will bring and mark May 20-21 2006 for the next ISR.

Mart Falarski

President NCSS


[RCSE] Davenport ISR

2005-05-21 Thread Ron Widel
I just got back from the ISR MOM slope races and it was awesome.
Wind averaged well over 30 mph and gusting to over 40 mph The lap speed 
were up near record times.
The caliber of pilots, the best, ( th who's who of slope racing but the 
air was very turbulent and I've never seen more mid-airs and crashes at 
one event (I lost count after 8)and I left about half way through.
The landing also were extra challenging as the rotors were terrible.
A sight I'll remember was Walter Lynch body surfing in the Pacific 
Ocean to recover his errant sailplane.
The sun was out, the wind was howling and Davenport was the place to be 
this Saturday.
With all the carnage I never heard one word of complaint or whining. it 
was slope racing in all it's glory.
Ron

Hey Ron Thanks for the photos

Your description of sloping at Davenport brings back good memories...

There is nothin like a kick ass day at Wadell Creek...
A hot ship fully loaded...
Man on men...
So much wind you cant see...
And the only trophy is a bit of slope trash to bring home...

Bozo

Still waiting for that slow ass AVA...

Well now let me see. The Socal Paddler Bingham wants to get his paddle back
on May 5 so he can spank the NorCal boys  2 weeks earlier. Bragging that u
can fly so fast as to go back 2 weeks in time is quite a claim, not atypical
from that neck of the woods (pun intended).

 Don't listen to 'em Daryl, they are just jealous northerners who worship
 antiquated 70's slopers and skateboard style half pipe maneuvers. Those
 grass smoking, free loving hippie long hairs can't concentrate long enough
 to find a thermal if their bellbottoms depended on it.

 I'll loan you my socal paddle for davenport as long as you get it back to

 for the blanco event.

   Hey Simon,
  
   The hardcore slope racers from SoCal will
   be attending the ISR, but you're right
   about the DS Fest. They pretty much just
   DS foamies down south and Dieter just
   won't tolerate that at his event. Kinda
   girly I know. I've seen some decent SoCal
   DS but rarely away from their home slope
   and never
   in
   a competitive environment. The land of the
   so called Manly Pilots Association and
   birthplace of DS  Sigh  How things
   change.
  
   But hey, we'll take you to school at
   Blanco this year so you can spank
   them
   SoCal boys should they grow some nads and
   show the following year!
  
   Hehehehehe,
  
   Craig
  
   I think it is only fair to point out that
   we around here know, and have experienced
   little, about DS'ing...except what we
   have seen on Paul Naton's great videos.
   We have done zero slope racing as well,
   MoM or otherwise...
  
   Whip me, beat me, make me write bad
   cheques...it's still the truth.
  
   However...we are master beer assimilaters
   (somehow that sounds bad), and sorta(?)
   familiar with tokes, (not toques - wore
   these over my brainpan on the ski slopes
   when they were in vogue, sirca the 70's),
   and we do know how to go very fast. As my
   signature indicates, Cogito-Ergo-Zoom (I
   think, therefore, I go fast).
  
   So, scuttlebutt sez there will be ZERO
   representation from some place called
   Southern California. What's up with that?
