Northern Ontario IMAC Challenge

A great event; thanks to all the competitors who travelled here.

Steve epic day of flying at SMAC or weekend in the Soo?

Had possible DVT (bold clot) scare in my left leg as extremely swollen and could not walk on it. Turns out is probably something called Baker's Sys (Google it). Just taking Advil (ibuprofen) for next few days and observing.

Put a kibosh on my dock rebuild at the cottage.

Leg feels much better now and I can actually walk again!

Jim - I think we started with 16 pilots but then lost three over the course of the weekend with plane issues. So ended up with 13 who finished the rounds Sunday.

Basic - 6 started down to 5
Sportsmen - 4 started down to 3
Intermediate - 4 started down to 3
Unlimited - 2

Re: NOIC Sault Ste. Marie

Made it home at 10:30 Sunday night. Many thanks to Craig and the Soo club for their support and efforts. Was a picture perfect weekend weather wise with light winds.

Was great to have new Basic pilots and see them having success and enjoying the weekend. Also great to see many friends and have a great time all weekend.

Jim - only Rob Willis and his wife from near Grand Rapids. So with those odds we were successful taking back the America's - Can-Am - Cup.

Again Craig, terrific job and tremendous welcoming effort by the club.
