[LASS Soaring] Fwd: [RCSE] LOFT 2007 Contest

[Edwin Wilson]

Your on the right track Brian. It would be good for us to have a spare 
CD for our big contest.
As a side note I got my CD license in 1980. Same year my son Michael was 
born.  I'm sooooo old I did not have to take a test. Did have to get a 
few signatures including a district VP. I did take the current test 
without looking up the answers just to see if Im still up to date, and I 
got them all but one. (a power plane question) Don't forget you can 
request a new lower AMA number.

So the first club contest is the day after the Derby fun fly. You and 
Ken need to set some dates for future contests.
