RE: Muncie 2012
Mike, I won't be able to make it this year. I am undergoing testing for a chochlear implant and have an appointment with the VA just before the contest. Going to Muncie - competing and getting to see old friends is one of the highlights of my year. I hope everyone has a great time and I will see you all next year. Juan

Muncie 2012
I know it's a little early but what are the dates for the RC Skydiving Rally this year? I will be doing some traveling prior to the Rally and need to start doing some planning. Thanks for any information. Looking forward to seeing everyone there. Juan

RE: Experiment with a emergency chute
Jules, Emergency chute is an excellent idea. I could have used this at Muncie with all the dirt dives I had. How about showing some pictures of the emergency chute set-up. Juan

RE: Muncie 2011
Jim, I did have three margaritas Saturday night at the Texas Roadhouse. You think that might be what messed things up for me on Sunday? Yep it would great to see you and Jules next year. Yeah one of these days they will have orange paint for the circle then look out! Jim I don't think you will have any problem with the 1600' runway just make sure there ain't houses in the area!! Just joking of course. Juan

RE: Muncie 2011
Jules, I had a very low score. If they had been giving the "Pants Down" thropy I probably would have won it. As you can see from the pictures the weather was cloudy with about 10 mph winds. There was a little bit of rain on Sunday. The only thing orange about the circle was the score numbers. Next year I will bring orange paint. If they don't paint an orange circle we will paint our own. I hope to see you there next year. ORANGE POWER FOREVER!!!!! Juan

RE: Muncie 2011
Jim, I was very disappointed no orange circle. Although the score numbers were in orange. GaryV took first place, Trey was second and Frank Moak was third. Frank and Trey had to hold a flyoff on their last jump. Both of them landed outside the circle but Trey was closer. GaryV will post pictures of the winners I am sure. There were 15 competitors. (I think that is pretty close to the right number). It would have been nice if you could have made it. Next year no orange circles I will lead a strike. I hope Jules gets to make it next year so he can become a protester along with me!! Juan

RE: Muncie 2011
Jules, Good to know that you will be coming to Muncie this year. Yeah you don't want to stress your back by doing any pants pulling and butt kicking. I think that "Orange Circles" are less stressful on the back. See you there. Juan and Bob

History of RC Skydiving in the US
I am interested in getting information about some of the early pioneers in RC Skyding here in the United States. People such as Bob Patterson, Wally Gitches, etc. Also when some of the members of this forum started RC Skydiving and some of your experiences. Pictures would be helpful. Also if you have any catalogs or brochures. Thanks for any information. Juan

RE: Muncie IN Rally
Jim, Both Paul and Guy did a great job of controlling their jumpers. I am still on the road and should be home by next Tuesday and will post what pictures I took. No one brought the PDA to make any award. I would probably have been the winner as I had two dirt dives back to back. At least one of my jumpers didn't drift off a mile or more away. Juan

RE: Muncie IN Rally
Jim, I will post some pictures as soon as I download them from my camera. The results for the the rally: Gary V. took first place and Paul Fannin was second and guy McIntire took third. Guy also be came the newest member of the "100 Club". I think it was the last jump on Sunday when he got into the 100 point circle. Juan

RE: Muncie IN Rally
Mike, No tears at all. Now, that is an idea I will take my ball and go home. Guess Bob and I will have to go around with hat in hand and see if someone will take our jumpers up. Bob and I got here his afternoon (Thursday) will be going out to the field tomorrow. See you guys when you get here. Juan

RE: Muncie IN Rally
Mike, I refuse to believe that that you think I am using some kind of laser sighting system on my jumpers. I just kind of point the jumper in the direction of the circle and hope for the best. I was going to bring my Telemaster but the engine has a bent prop shaft. What is all this talk about kicking our butts this year. I thought that this would be a kinder and gentler rally. Now that you have shown yourself to be the "school yard bully" and have intimidated me I my not be able to put forth my best effort at the rally. Now, Bob is a different matter I heard him mumbling something about kicking some butt back in retaliation. Yours in Kindness and gentleness, Juan
