USFFC news flash
From : Terry Kerger
F1S added to USFFC event schedule with mini events


Hardy has gone flying.

Re: Hardy has gone flying.
I can still hear the voice nearly 40 years later “Donde, what about my 500
bucks?” this is midnight in Ohio.
He was collecting money for the 1st container on Lost Hills.
Years later same voice same Hardy on the field “Arik , How are you? ”  etc.
His best was a dialog with old George Xenakis at LH. “what the hell are we
doing here?”
Hardy was not just an organizer, creative and doer, he was an  inspiration
and the best free flight ambassador for the reason we are still  with it.
I will miss him.

Missing articles

there are couple of items that we got a while back about some “sporting anonmalies”  both of these require that the edior write something… which he has not done , too busy flying, working on timers, reporting on major events but we will get to it soon.
