[MT-ALES] MESS Dues and Biannual Elections

[CURTIS SUTER]

Carl and all…
I swapped out my FrSky 20R for an X18RS due to form factor, size and weight.  I upgraded the software and so now need to update the receiver firmware and see if everything moved over properly.  Fingers crossed.  I’m still trying to finish up my Alpina GPS scratch build.  I leave soon for a dog sniff even and then leave from there for Flight Safety so I’m gone soon for the rest of the month.  That means I won’t be here the 22nd and Hal is gone so I’m thinking there won’t be enough folks for a contest.

Yea, I was rooting for JW, I wanted him to have that solo win at the Worlds in F5J.  He’s certainly amazingly consistent.  Appears the contest was well run.  The USA has some great Junior flyers too!

Curtis,

Just sent you $25.00 dues by PayPal.  I’m good with present officers.

I’m still in Vermont. Flying home 19th.  Hope weather is good!  Need to fly and trim both Ultimas.  Moved them to a different radio and reprogrammed.  They work on the bench, need to fly and verify/adjust!  Hope to see y’all on the 22nd!

What a fly off for WC!  After that many days of supper intensive flying in those difficult conditions it’s all about mental toughness.  Go John Bradley and JW, well done!

Carl
