First two days

Enjoyed certain parts, when compared to the first two years. I didn't enjoy watching the wizards and loops and loops and loops and loops that just never ended.

Skip, Red Bull Helicopter, Bleriot and sister biplane (small tom thumb, 80hp thing ), were wonderful for the total of 30 minutes, but was bored with the rest of the 6 hours time fillers.

Must say, the original aviator chasing the meat behind an R/C aircraft was interesting to see, for the first time. especially when it decided to break lose and chase some pigeons near the fuel tanks! Those guys must have bee sweating to see $100000 bird chase some "local bird"!
