1. The bullshit started early sunday

2 and 3. alain was the chef on sunday. Great job alain. THANKS!

4. Throwing out helpful comments during a styrker event. Jon's stryker was unserviceable, something about three times under an Upper Stewiacke bridge. LOL

He has video but refuses to show it to his stryker buddies! >:(

Chris took a few hits today. two on his fun cub and others on his stryker. Note the fins. She flies just fine, probably faster with the lesser drag.

Yes it was Al!

But I also heard Craig say while taking photos "this is stryker flying for seniors". Or something like that. LOL

Craig jiust sent me three pictures from today. The panorama in particular is neat and might make a great banner for the top of the web site.

yep not bad at all.
however, the Corsair ended up with some damage during it last battle (battle over New Brunswick) and was able to crawl bake home. It is now in the hangar being worked on and it will be like new for the next battle season. Corsair not to good against the BF-109f but it would do better against a zero, if only someone had one :(
