Jim and Bill we will miss your presence in Muncie. Of course if my home field was the perfect jet field I'd be staying home too!

The new club I joined this year is having a large scale meet, and my Falcon qualifies. SO... I should probably fly there this weekend. (Mon-Valley)

Those were some great videos, watched them half screen each, timed together to watch the flight from the cockpit and the ground, really neat. Too bad your missing this weekend, but will still see you at OctoberFest.
