Hello fellow SA F3Kers.
Family Goodrum had a fantastic weekend in Nancy, France this past weekend. Michelle was top senior female, Nicole top junior female and 4th junior, and I (Craig Goodrum) placed 10 but also 1st in the over 55 category. 3 1st place carbon wings from Jérémy André coming back to SA with us. As a matter of interest I have left my BAMFs in SA in the hope of coming to fly there so I had to borrow Michelle's Snipes. Even with an old guy flying the Snipe still made it to 10th against a lot of newer models.

Thanks to Vladimir's Models for the years of support!
