You haven’t heard much from me and this will probably be my last blog post until September.<\/p>\n

Between o4 August and 11 August, I will be attending THREE contests – yes, three contests in a week.\u00a0 Tomorrow is our local Cloudbusters’ Picnic meet, then Tuesday I leave for the AMA Nats in Muncie, Indiana (FAC events Wed-Fri), and lastly, Saturday and Sunday is the much-rescheduled McCook Squadron FAC meet (staying in Muncie).<\/p>\n

Geneseo was fun, as always, but it left me with some chores.\u00a0 My dependable and always-a-contest-threat King Harry flew away.\u00a0 My Jimmie Allen Sky Raider suffered some blown-out sticks, my new Wanderer had a wobbly tail and smashed the nose, and my Caudron flew great until I tried to make it fly better and it blew out some side supports. So here’s what I have been doing in these two weeks:<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

A new King Harry has been built.\u00a0 The Wanderer’s nose and tail have been rebuilt.\u00a0 The side was repaired on the Sky Raider, the Caudron has been repaired, and I spent an afternoon trimming out the Kuenz Klingon Embryo.\u00a0 The Klingon was selected to be the One-Design and will be given out to registrants at this year’s FAC Outdoor Champs in September.\u00a0 I built this one while Ralph was still alive and we will be honoring him this year.\u00a0 I thought I better get mine flying as an example of the product.\u00a0 I’ll give it a workout tomorrow.<\/p>\n

Here’s two more images:\u00a0 the first is the T-Shirt image for the Outdoor Champs.\u00a0 You can register online right now by going here:\u00a0 http:\/\/cloudbustermac.tripod.com\/registration.html<\/a>\u00a0 – when you show up at the Champs, you will get a T-shirt AND a Klingon Short Kit.\u00a0 The second is a reminder that I will be out of town and you might not want to order from my shop, unless you don’t mind delays.<\/p>\n
