<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Thanks Michael,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I enjoyed the day. Perfect weather outside
one little ole shower. Flew till we ran out of fuel and daylight.
Glad you got to experience one of the finer flying fields in North Texas.
Don't be afraid to post..... and post often as you like.</FONT></DIV>

the mailing list. I have never really thought about joining the NSRCA because
of the limited number of pattern contest that I can attend (Approx 3).<SPAN

question for me to pack up a plane ship it to the lower 48 and then fly myself
down to compete in other district contests.<SPAN

to be in Austin Texas for a week and was looking for a place to hang out at on
Sunday. It was only a matter of minutes be for I got a reply from Wayne
Galligan who invited me to come up to the field in Waco.<SPAN
style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>Now let me say Wayne did not know me
from Adam but he brought his 2 pattern ships and a buddy box to the field. The
weather turned out to be beautiful and we flew until it was dark.<SPAN
