I'll be in Illinois this summer.

However, it's like breaking up with an old flame. I'll miss JC, I've been going there since '87. In '94 I was CD and we had 110 registered, that's twice as many as now. So many memories of great flyers that are gone,Belief,Randolph,Hardcastle,it's too long of a list. We all used to stay in the dorms building on the students desks, flying planes down the dorm hallways.One of the best parts of indoor are all the great friends I've made. Indoor flyers are quite a diverse group.

It's ironic that EZB is head for that same group of used to flys with the advent of F1L. It used to be an owe inspiring site to see the spectrum of glistening colors shining through a graceful micro film ship,notice they were called "ships". Now it seems like if a class is difficult, we have to jump to rule changes. Some class are a bitch, you know what? That's indoor. However, there are twice as many other great classes that anyone can fly and enjoy.
