OK, the US Nationals are history for 2011. Rob Holland won it all (as expected). I worked long and hot days on the ramp. During the Tech Inspections I found a battery in a Pitts that was secured only with Tie-wraps - WTF???. how could anyone think that is OK for flying Advanced Acro?? Just Crazy! Saw lots of old friends, met new ones. Hopefully next year I will fly in the Nationals... not just work it.
Now we are on the road to who knows where... we are currently in Amarillo TX and will head into NM tomarrow and on North to Colorado for a few days before continuing N to WY, then SD and back home to catch a plane for the Borrego Springs Acro Contest in CA. It will be a sad contest due to the loss of one of our CA acro pilots. gotta go eat - more later, over and out..
