I was awarded Phase two status a little over a week ago, and Saturday had my first chance to fly a full show with the team. Rock had to work, so I flew slot, and had a blast! Thanks guys, for giving me the opportunity to fly with the best!

Nice work Gunner! Your hard work is paying off and it's amazing to see how quickly you have come in such a short span of time. :D You have definately raised the bar for potential future phase 2 pilots!

Thanks guys -

I've worked really hard(gotta make up for the lack of talent :wink: ), but you can't forget who my instructors/mentors are :D It's easier when you are taught by the best!
