They say life is what happens while you are making plans. The SWC did not go as I planned! After a smokin first round in RES and Open my radio decided to go south. I resigned myself to time and watch the rest of the contest. Then comes along my old buddy Joe Nave. Since we both fly Supra and Ava on a 9303 Joe offered to let me use his transmitter. After a little reprogramming both planes were again flyable. To top it off, in the next to last round while climbing through George Joy he cut my Ava wing tip off! The plane kept flying with a little rudder trim and just missed a 20 landing on time! Then Joe offers to let me fly his Ava! And this is while he is in first place! Thanks Joe, you deserved the win. Our new TOSS junior Ben flew all rounds but the last one made it all worth while as he skied out and made a perfect approach to landing points while friends and family looked on. The CASL guys threw a great contest I'll be back next year. Mike Reagan
