Not a busy week for us here due to the weather cycle we have been in, but we still managed to get some skydiving in. We had some pretty serious storms roll thru the Hinckley area last week. Normal people run for cover when the skies look like this, skydivers run for their cameras!

As always, when the weather is nice, we are busy out here. The party on Saturday night was a bit quieter than most due to the slow day, but we still had a great night.

We decided last week to postpone Sporto's visit because of the forecast and we're glad we did. Sporto is due in this Friday and will be here all weekend offering freefly organizing along with Matty Wright.

We are flying for Team Fastrax again this week in Middletown, OH. This is our last scheduled training camp of 2006 for the team, so the Otter will be here until she leaves for Mexico in October. There will be a Cessna 206 at CSC until Friday around lunchtime.

Let's try this again - last week we mentioned a gathering at Hooters in Downers Grove for our friend Terry Gardner who is moving to Arizona. We posted that it was taking place on Wednesday, we failed to tell you which Wednesday. It is tomorrow, Wednesday, September 27th at 7:00pm. Terry, I'm sorry to say I cannot be there as I am flying in Ohio this week. Thanks for everything you did for us and I wish you and your family the very best in Arizona!

Congratulations:
