Duncan won't be awake, Jason is the friendliest bloke you'll meet and Matt he's never got a smile off his face or it's wind

[Connor Sloan]

Except the judges who growl & snarl at you

Lol !

Guys and girls, fantastic news just announced by our friends Mattie and Richie, the winner of MK Grass Roots 2012 will automatically receive a place in the AIR competition. If the winner has already entered then this will go to 2nd place and so on.

Thanks boys, something else to aim for.

Hopefully all the other Grassroots competitors are in the Air Comp. That will give me a chance to be in it.
I suppose I could beg.

I've already told Matt i'm unable to attend the Air comp so regardless of placing i can't go. Talking of Grass Roots i've just been out practicing my Sets.

[waveydavey]

How they going

[mikeKendall]

Can someone break Paddys thumbs . He's getting far to much practice in.

Looking forward to meeting you Paddy..

How they going

Hmmm, well a bit rusty after all this rain. I'll be back on trak after a few more dry days I've been concentrating on being able to fly as hard as i can from the first pack instead of flying pants till the last pack as you don't get a warm up flight, but now i'm back on the sets

LOL, did i mention i've been practicing flying with my toes

Yea likewise, it'll be my biggest heli flyin i've been to

[mikeKendall]

I know what you mean. It normally takes me a couple of flights before a start to fly ok-ish.. But on the Day I've got to be Ok-ish on the first Flight.

[waveydavey]

Only 7 days to go guys before entry closes.

As we don't have 20 pilots I've gone and done it, I'm in!!!

[p4ddy]

I'm now without a caller as both my caller choices are now unable to attend....gutted but there you go. So if i don't get anyone else i'll be requiring one on the day now if it's possible. I flew with Mattie & Pete yesterday & flew my sets & some freestyle & i was shaking. I don't shake anymore so it was mental feeling that again & made me realise i'll probably be nervous as hell on the flightline

[waveydavey]

A caller is the easy bit Paddy, the nerves I can't help with

[p4ddy]

If i fly like i did a moment ago i'll be joining Waveydavey in the extreme hovering. I hope it's not too windy,& if there's wind ( apart from my arse with nerves) it's in my prefered direction for an auto & the sky is not the wrong shade of grey. Blue, white, even black storm cloud but not grey. It's going to be all my worst conditions combined Dam i'm negative today...see what 1 crap flight does to me LOL

Long range weather is for snow and gales, perfect weather.
