What about restored scratch builds?

Could be best scale, could be best sport, is it a multi-motor; could be best multi.

Could be CD's choice; could be pilots' choice.

Michael, thanks for attempting to focus us on modelling innovation and effort and for organizing and posting the prize categories!
Serious questions about this weekend's FunFly,
1. Are we following Jack's Air Show format? Although I don't often fly at FunFlys, I like Jack's Air Show format, especially the limiting of traffic.
2. I also really like air shows (full size or models) with a commentator I can actually hear. Michael? P.A.? If we're bringing scale models, should we bring a write-up about the model/real aircraft modelled or is it too late to organize this? Sometimes, past TEMAC events have included some of this, IMHO improving the quality of the "show".
Even though FunFly suggests informality, my questions stem from a feeling that the flying at a club "event" should be different from regular Sunday afternoons which are always fun flys.

Hi Bill

This funfly is not going to be one of the air-show format events; it's just a regular funfly, where I suppose several will bring out some of their nicer planes for some friendly showing-off and just for fun.

There will be funflying, a barbeque, racing, more funflying, awards, an auction, and more even more funflying.

I expect we'll have a more formal type event next year at what will probably be a bigger and combined jets/warbird event.

I just finished putting the final touches on my Norseman, so I'm looking forward to Sunday to get it into the air. If its as calm as the long range forecast says it will be, I'll be bringing along the big old beasts for an airing as well.

This is torture!  Cant wait for Sunday! Did a once over of the fleet and all is prepped.

I will be bringing the RV so washroom facilities are provided should you or your others require.

I got some goodies ready. Tomorrow will be busy preparing.

Had I started on my Yak sooner, it would be ready for Sunday. Sadly, unless some magic happens, it won't be
