Well, the Southwest Classic is over, and the way it started, I was out
before it began with an equipment issue, more later.  The CASL guys ran a
good show and I got to see many folks that I have not gotten to see for a
good while.  Arizona, despite the first day being a bit out of character was
wonderful, we spent the past week with my parent in Tuscon, but the downer
was that I had picked up something that left me coughing and hacking all
week, I am not over it yet.

A major thanks goes to Bob Lenard for loaning me his back up ship to fly, I
lost two servos on my NYX with out even getting it into the air.  A major
warning to JR 368 servo users, do not go 5 cell, 6 volt on those servos.  I
talked to some folks other than myself that have had 368's on 5 cell packs
go bad, and talking to others on 4.8 volt systems everything has been fine.
The servo just stopped operating, point blank.  The packaging says nothing
about excluding 5 cell use, but I am just thankful it was on ther ground and
the ship is in one piece.

Thanks to the donors of prizes we won in the raffle, Opulant Opals, Lift
Ticket Video and a brush kit upgrade from the Winch Doc.
