- Sorry these emails are all out of order I have had trouble getting the emails for various reasons...
"Today is processing day and it is dragging a bit as it is 1.00pm we have been going since 9.00 and our guys are still not even close to being done. The radio checks all came through ok so only the planes to go. There is no flying allowed until processing is completed so it looks like a full day of sitting around doing stuff all.
The event web site has now been updated and there are photos there of our guys in the prelimary competition. Our shirts are in much demand with people asking to reserve them after the first day tomorrow. Joe has had comment that they are the best here, some of them aren't so hot so the boys will be very selective on trades I think. John, have had a look at Matt Woods from Australia Sal Peter. Very interesting, also talked to Joe how the wing is made and we could duplicate it fairly easy with the new carbon toe we are bringing home. There is one hell of a lot of Pikes and Supras here as well as the new German and Bulgarian machines.
I am not impressed with the way they handled the pre worlds results, a Junior won the fly off but they gave him only the Junior prize and gave the first place to the next person Darryl Perkins a Senior who finished second in the fly off. Needless to say Darryl was less than impressed as he said he was out flown by a junior whom should have won.
They are not even half way through processing and it 2.00pm already this is going to be a long day.finaly we were measured at around 4.00pm. Opening ceremony went very well with Joe and I being last on to the bus as we were held up by an American and the Brazilians. Drywall Perkins showed the man that he is and intervened to allow the Junior to be acknowledged as the right full winner at the prize giving all around a good day. The b**l s**t stops when the flag drops tomorrow morning
Regards to all Paul Chisholm"
