Hey Joshua,
Nice looking flights.
Good to see you on the list. Someone thought I was screwing with you when I said you should consider joining the F1D Team Selection program, but I wasn't :)
No better way to get up to speed (if you are into the F1D kind of competition) than jumping in with both feet. Just ask Dennis Tyson, who chose as his first F1D contest the Dorcol Cup in Serbia before the World Champs!

All of the wood comes from hobby shops, and the motorstick and tailboom stock was actually scrap planed off a TLG wing blank. Covering is polymicro, which makes building these to weight rather difficult. I'm going to order some OS pretty soon.
