 This week is busy with wrapping up paperwork, cleaning up and taking care of the lost and found!  Speaking of this - we have found a wallet, a guitar and we are missing a contest radio, please let me know if you have it or know where it might be!!  We also have an aircraft radio that needs identifying.  At the banquet we gave out pilot and category photos.  If you were not there and would like one, please email me your category, "N" number and address and I will get them to you in a few weeks.

With 22 pilots competing in the Unlimited Category, Debby Rihn-Harvey took the 2006 Championship with Michael Racy placing second and David Martin in third.  Great job Debby!  Todd Whitmer is the Advanced Champion with Mike Galloway in second and Tony Wood in third.  We had 23 competitors in the Advanced Category.  The Intermediate Champion is Bud Judy with Bill Denton in second and Kevin Campbell in third.  The Sportsman Champion is Jenner Knight and Tom Rhodes placed second followed by Joe Haycraft in third.  The Gliders made a strong appearance this year with 13 flying.  Jason Stephens was named the Unlimited Glider Champion for 2006, followed by Jeremy Stacy in second and Klein Gilhousen in third.  The USAFA also came out strong this year in the Intermediate and Sportsman Categories. 

David Martin is the 4 Minute Free Style Champion for 2006!  We had 10 pilots compete and it was a great way to close out our week with lots of smoke and great flying.

The 2007 Unlimited World Team Members were also chosen:  David Martin, Zach Heffley, Robert Armstrong, Dan Clark, Michael Racy, Allyson Parker-Lauck, Debby Rihn-Harvey, Melissa Andrzejewski, Chandy Clanton and Vicki Cruse.  Goody Thomas will serve as the alternate.

With 97 competitors we safely flew over 400 flights including practice, competition and rides.  We had a great knowledgeable staff with a lot of experience which made the contest run super smooth.  The weather......what more can be said........it was next to perfect.  Each evening we held an event in our Hospitality Hangar which really gave everyone a great opportunity to catch up, talk the day over and meet our new pilots.  There was great food, plenty of beverages and a few neat door prizes each night.  The sunsets were breath taking and our motto became - "If you didn't have a good time at Nationals...it was your own fault".  Our Sponsors support gave us the ability to provide a Nationals to remember - please remember them, thank them and support them throughout the year. 

Look for the full story on Nationals in the November issue of Sport Aerobatics.  Thank you to all our sponsors, terrific volunteers and my friends (new and old) who helped make this a great Nationals.
