What a day! Just getting home and to bed! Long story short, had some issues with the plane, got them fixed by shear luck - qualified 3rd - first race 3rd - BUT Joe Gano in "Pipsqueak" (do a google search about Joe and his planes, he's a great guy) cut a pylon so now we're in 2nd. Although former astronaut Curt Brown kicked ass and won the first race, we may have a chance to zero in on him. Off the line all 3 planes were close! It's going to be a matter of exceleration.
Other stuff - saw a Lockheed Ventura land, all the warbirds you can shake a stick at and at the end of the day had a few beers with CMDR "Flake" Snow - CO Navy Fighter Weapons School, Fallon NV, great guy - some of the other operators are going to get him in an L-39 within the next few days.
I'm sunburned and beat - will try to update tomorrow! Thanks for all thee kind words guys!!!!

Well another day at 2nd - we went back to the original wingtips and ran a bit slower but was still able to contain Joe Gano in "Pipsqueak." Joe had us on the run but m
Mike held on - Curt Brown once again sailed into 1st.
An issue today with the Blue Angels - not sure what happened but their practice was cut short.
More to come - time for bed!

As long as you're holding onto 2nd, that gives you a good shot at capturing 1st!
Hope nothing's wrong with the Blue Angles, they're supposed to be here at the Redding Airshow next weekend...
Thanks for the update, we're all pulling for ya'!
