I'd like to pile on to the thanks and recognition for a very well organized launch.
Taco Tren was a hit. I'll make a point to buy even more food next time.

James, Richard, Gary, Aaron and all the rest of the TCC regulars - thanks for keeping things safe and under control. We got in some great flights, and got to watch many others.
And Richard - thank you for your help at the away pad.

Extra thanks to Steve Maddox for kindly hosting us. Great launch sites are very hard to find, and even harder to keep. My sons and I deeply appreciate the privilege of flying at Maddox Farms.


Thanks everyone,


-Bill

Thank you everyone for the great launch this weekend! There are so many people to thank for such a great
time - Aaron Hagadorn, Mike Smith, Gary Walker, Rod Lovley, Richard King, Jimmy Franco, Karl B, Gary R,
Gene E, James Marino, the list just keeps going on and on.

I really had a great time folks - looking forward to videos and pictures of all the great flights this weekend,
I hope we got some great vids of the drag race!

Anyhow, now that we've set the new standard, we have to do a one up for October Skies!
