Yuan Kang Lee, while surrounded by great mentors in the San Diego area said he learned from the internet. Speaks well of
this site.
Leo also walked away with about half the raffle items (claims to have bought a bunch of tickets).
Thanks to the raffle contributers and to Stan Buddenbohm, Ralph Ray and Norm Furutani for a unique indoor experience.

Thanks Bill.
In truth I wish I’d had more time to
devote to flying. Much of my time was spent on the other end of the hangar
watching/timing the glider flights, and taking 200+ photos for Digest. Nevertheless those A-6 and LPP
times were personal bests for me in those events, so I was delighted.
Kang’s performance in F1L cannot be
understated. He asked lots of questions throughout the weekend, and after his
19:44 we joked that we were going to stomp on his roughly-built beginner models
“for his own good.” He certainly does not need much more “help”
to become a great flyer!

Results
I'm totally in awe of the glider battle and the
results. I was on pins and needles the whole time it was happening even being a
couple thousand miles away.
There were a number of other accomplishments at this event that deserve some
public recognition. Some have been mentioned before but here is my list:
Don DeLoach
Breaks 9 minutes to win A6
Breaks 14 1/2+ minutes in LPP (and loses!)
Leo Pilachowski
Leo isn't exactly a newbie having been involved in SO for several years. But
now he is becoming a force to contend with.
1st place LPP with 14:46
1st place Science Olympiad (beating the extra tough Chris Borland)
And of course-
Yuan Kang Lee - wins F1L with a very respectable 19:44 at his first contest
with a new model
Congrats to all!
