Default Diamond Distance/Kowbell

Free Distance flying has never been dead but it seems to be really
alive and well this season. Gordon and Hugh's amazing flight from
Minden to Colorado early this year followed by the duo from Caesar
Creek who made it to Blairstown really set the tone for the season.
Kowbell was a general success with 3/4 of us making it over 200
miles. We can only hope that the Dust Devil Dash is as much of a
success as it was last year when Kevin Wayt won the Barringer
Trophy.

Nothing beats the feeling of leaving the airport and saying "self, i
don't know where i'm going but i'm not going back there!"


And maybe you can get Mitsubishi to sponsor the next Kowbell by
providing the appropriate crew cars to each entrant, with the winner
keeping the car:
