NFKA 2001 WSIKF
Tuesday & Wednesday

bunker construction 3

  our strategy was two-pronged...   weather and hornitos.

  first, on tuesday and wednesday we threw a full-blown tail-end of a sub-arctic typhoon at them...    all the driving rain ( 3 inches ), wind ( south 30k, gusts to 45k ), and line-tangling blowing sand we could muster in an effort to turn our competition into prunes and mental weaklings.

  the heavy weather gave everyone the opportunity to sit around inside talking and showing each other our fighters for two days...   nfka guys spent the time gathering intelligence on out-of-area design innovations...   a great thing, cause we were getting pretty inbred and in danger of becoming lazy...   flying was impossible anyplace but inside...   which some did, with great enjoyment, at the local elementary school gym.

" Oh, great " Lake Manjha
