Slick,

Call if you ever need ballast.

Boomer,

You are welcome any time, clinic or not.

We live an hour's drive from Yosemite Park and have spare cars to loan.

Come on by, it'd be great to see you again.

The WCFC 2012 Clinic Management Team would like to thank all the pilots that flew in from as far away as Missouri, Texas, Colorado, Idaho, Oregon and Washington. We'd also like to thank the many volunteers (local and Shang-hai'd) that truly made the clinic special.

We're especially gratified that we safely flew over 50 briefed formation hops (2-ship, 3-ship, 4-ship plus the all-up) and over 200 aircraft sorties from Friday through Sunday, with 56 participating aircraft! Some great training was accomplished, and we had the following training and qualification milestones achieved among the cadre:
5 Rookies moved to Novice
1 Novice moved to Intermediate
1 Intermediate moved to Advanced
2 Wingman Cards were earned

And 56 pilots had an absolute blast training in formation flight, working hard, playing hard, and making new friends!

I hope those with pictures from the clinic continue to post them here!

We're looking forward to flying with everyone throughout the year, and welcome any other pilots interested in formation flying to contact us any time. Hope to see you at the 2013 WCFC!

Cheers,
Bob "Nasty"
