Guys,
I attended the Windy City Classic in Chicago yesterday the 29th. The weather was rainy and chilly. The winds were light and variable. The Chicagoland Circle Cutters did a great job. A big thanks to Mike Schmitt (CD) and his family.

Thanks so much for reporting on the contest. I would like to thank every one who came out and spent the day with us in Chicago. We had a very good turn out. It is easy to put on a contest when you have so much help from friends and family. Lets do it again next year!

Crist,

Thanks for posting these. I had a big wedding on Saturday so I didn't even try to get ready for this event. It looks like everyone had a great time. I missed a good one (aren't they all?).

See you soon,

Fred

Crist,

Thanks for the reports. Mike certainly looks happy in that picture of his family. Why wouldn't he be, as the one thorn among four roses?

Some nice looking planes, too.
