Re: Heading to Worlds. Indoor Free Flight
We have completed all the pre contest and practice days. The salt mine is hell on planes and people. The three juniors have had some setbacks with broken parts, but all have repaired and are ready for tomorrow. The air in the mine had been pretty bad during testing, mostly due to the number of touri...
