Take a look at this picture. Shows the 2nd place pilot in unlimited flying
his 6-servo plane during the heat and intensity of the Unlimited contest at
the NATS
Well, yes, but I believe the pilot admits to not being able to see the darn
things anyway.

Previously in this thread:
Mayor Glover (of gloverville) and dogcatcher Steve never bring chairs
to the flight-line again!
JoJo, if you come back to the NATS you MUST fly every flight with the TX in
your hand... no more letting the plane thermal itself for 6-7 minutes...
it's not championship
Gosh, I was with you for a while there Mike. But you lost me when you
mentioned Tom sitting on Jim's lap and sticking out their tongues. Can't say
I'm supportive of that! WOW, that's disturbing picture.
Gentlemen! Some decorum please!

Careful Mike, you're going to ruin your reputation as a fun guy!
For the record, at the request of launch-meister and grad wazoo of
the flight line, Jim Thomas, I brought the chairs to the flight
line. That's my smiling face with the stop watch in the pix.
Happily, both of these fine guys

That's a great photo of DP doing his thing... But, he is still going
straight to hell.

Spanking is a good thing...right?

That is a cool pic. Thanks whoever took it. And
guys... I've done that at the world's. 10 minutes can
be a really long time... especially when no-one will
bring you a chair... ;-)
thx,

Hmm... according to Mr. Stump, those who fly RES are only there to get
their chance at the podium - fliers eager for a scrap of the fleeting fame
that comes from getting wood'. What does that say about the Nostalgia
fliers? Sorry, Mike, some of us still enjoy the challenge of 3 channel
I thought RES was rather challenging, I had one little OOPS in the morning
and I was down to 14th. Just like any other class at the Nats, get all of
your times and good landings consistently...
P.S. I have to say I was having a BLAST flying my new Soprano, it's first
flights were in Muncie.

I agree that RES is currently not in the same league
as unlimited as far as prestige goes. I still maintain
that it is solely because it is treated that way by
contest organizers and possibly by some of the pilots
them selves. Treat it like it was a National class
event and it will be. Treat it
