2019 James K. Polk Open Invitational Tournament of Champions

Here’s a late update on last fall’s IAC Chapter 11 contest, the James K. Polk Open Invitational Tournament of Champions. (yes, that’s our real new contest name. I love it! #absurdityFTW)

I was happy to make the contest at all (work and weather) and doubly happy to get my first win in Intermediate. 

Thanks, as always, to Julie Artz (Youtube: horsemoney) for coming out to play with us and sharing video.

Not my sharpest flight ever but it got the job done. I love flying the Unknown. We receive the sequence only a day before and are not allowed to practice it in the air. It’s a great cerebral challenge on top of all the other pieces that layer together for a well-scoring competition flight. Contest Results

    Don’t know if you knew but you have appeared of Horsemoney’s YouTube channel again recently (1st June). Some really nice aerobatics 🙂

    Thanks Seb. Yes, we see Julie occasionally during our practice sessions. We appreciate her sharing; it’s always good to see another perspective of what our maneuvers look like.

Think something? Say something.
