Did you know that the promised videos feature Rounds 5 and 6 and Airspeed with a new NSL Talk? posted: Feb 12th, 2011 The official part of the Valentine's Meet 2011 is over. It's a 6-round meet usually, and the teams received their medals and gifts in all competition classes at the end of the day.
However, the AAA Class teams have already completed eight rounds, and two more are on the agenda tomorrow morning. The judges have not looked at Rounds 7 and 8 yet, and the NSL News had time to catch up with Arizona Airspeed's and France Aerodyne Maubeuge's videos of Rounds 5 and 6.
There is not a lot of time for editing more videos and uploading them, along with quick and short updates. It's a fast pace in Eloy,... (more)
Did you know that Airspeed is aiming at a new performance level? posted: Feb 12th, 2011 It is a 25.6 average after Round 5, and Arizona Airspeed's average will only go up in Round 6.
