And many spectators alsoThere were nine pilots, Homer Anderson, Robert Sanderson, Tony Farmer, Andrew Smith, Russ Green, Johnny Jones, Johnny Turner, Jeff Lee, and Doug Shoney.... In the frrst round Andrew got a cut on Robert, then turned around and had a midair hit with him, and nocking him out of the sky Andrew was able to keep flying Then, Johnny Turner and Homer had a midair that took them both out. There planes were in bad shape, and were not able to be fixed.. The 2nd round was hot and heavy with 7 guys going at it, no midairs but lots of cuts were had. As was the 3rd round, a lot of cuts and some EXCITING flying Andrew Smith came out on top with 8 points to take the win. Congraulations to Andrew Smith March-08 Combat Champ And a lot of "THANKS" to all the guys that were spotters
for the pilots Next Combat, April 20-08
Starting with April Combat I will be enforcing the starting time..... At 2:00 I wil sound the 15 minute warning horn. At 2:13 I well give a blast with my Siren, just to get your attention
to let you know that the 2 minute Scramble/Launch Horn is 2 minutes
away. "IF You Want To" I will sound the horn 1 time to start combat. The round will be for 6 minutes. I will sound the horn 1 time to stop combat... Time between rounds ???? I am still thinking on this one If you are hand launching your plane. Make sure that you are in front of the pilot pads........... Thanks....... |
