Hi guy's, just letting you all know that the state themal titles will be held at the BESS field (Bundaberg) on the 18th and 19th of April.
I'm currently doing a role call on the MRSSA site for anyone who thinks they might attend.
I have met some of you at armidale and toowoomba, and I hope that I may see you in Bundy too.
For any info call me on 41517616 or email [e-mail]
Hope to see you there.
Kind Regards,
Dale Ward.
P.S.: ATT: PAUL WHITE! where have you gone? we haven't seen you for a while...you better come out and have a fly sometime soon , remember that Ricco. dust it off for the states.

i might be able to come up just need transportation and a place to stay at

[bundyglida]

Chamm37, there are a bunch of guys coming up from Brissy, I'm sure I could organise a ride up for you with one of them, I have a spare room at my place to so accomodation doesn't have to cost you anything if you want?
Let me know
Dale

Sorry Dale, I hadn't checked in for ages so I missed your message. I went through a brief period of feeling satisfied with enough slope gliding for a while, but I've got the bug again now.

I haven't made the fixes I needed to on the Rico yet (mainly the rudder servo-end clevis wants to pop off, and tidying up and securing stuff in the cockpit), and I've only had that one day winch-launching, so I'm afraid I won't be at competition standard, lol. But the RES Rico isn't really suitable for these comps, is it? Are there other categories, or just the 10-minute flight in 12 minutes. Aren't full-house and crow-braking necessary for that type of flying?

[skyboyken]

Hi Pij,

RES planes regularly embarrass flyers of full-house planes with crow braking. Don't ask me how I know!

You get to compete with flyers of similar equipment even though there will be a mixture of planes flying at the same time. I'd suggest it's the perfect way to get back into comps if you haven't been to one for a while.

Ken.

Hi Dale,

where can I find directions to the field? Greg and I are staying at the recommended Motel.

TIA!

Ken.

Hey Dale,

My parents for got about the comp and have said no to me going cause i reaksed them tonight and yer they said no so im really pissed and angry but there will allways be more i guess


Regards,
Chris

Chris, should we be worried about your parents? You said "cause i reaksed them tonight". Are they OK? Do they need medical attention? That sounds pretty bad. If one of my kids reaksed me and I survived, I'd have the kid locked up. Sounds very violent.

[combatnoosa]

Regards,
Chris ;D

"no i miss spelt reasked wrong and i am sorry"

Chris there are no less than 6 spelling & grammar mistakes in just that bit. Can you please put your brain into gear before you type, then if you're sure that what you're about to say is worth saying, please get it to something like acceptable English before you press "submit"?

[mrbonk]

Hey all. Just wanted to post some footage that was taken at the state titles. There will be more added as I get the time to process/upload it.

[thevon]

Aaaawwww, man, some of those landings are cruel on the plane! I don't feel good about it!!

Really great video otherwise, thanks. I think it should be R rated for its violence content!
