The contest is just a few days away!!! Practice has already started, with the majority of contestants getting in one final practice at SEF on Wednesday 11/1. The contest will start on 11/2 with a good briefing.
Let me see a show of hands of who will be there! I finished getting my engine back on last week and I'm ready to roll! Can't wait! It's been several months since my last contest in early June at the Bear Creek Bash in Rome, GA.
The significant thing for me about this contest is that it will be my one year anniversary of competing in IAC. The Sebring contest last fall was my first. It's been a great year. Despite all of my hours and experience (1400 hours in my RV and 30+ years as a professional pilot) and having flown thousands of loops, rolls, and spins, I've learned quite a bit about my RV-8 and myself. I have had A LOT of fun! And I've met a lot of fantastic people. I hope to do this a very long time. Thank you Ron Shreck for introducing me to this crazy sport and the countless others that have supported me along the way!
I would love to see more RVs in competition. However, even if you're not interested in competition, please come out and watch to see what it's all about. SEF also has a great restaurant on the field. See you there!
