Hey Brad,
I can’t thank you enough for the awesome experience I had at Tenancingo! This note is way overdue, but after slogging through massive depression from getting back home and having to work again, I’m back to normal life :o)
First of all, your hospitality and Casa de Piloto were outstanding! The house was quite a nice retreat amongst the hustle and bustle of the activities. New Years eve was a blast with all of the folks from around the world wanting to take a swing at the George Bush piƱata.
The flying…The flying was the most challenging and exhilarating of my flying career! Super air every day. Sometimes intimidating, but the forecast is always the same (as Normando say’s) – sunny :o) Landing in the farm fields and having kids trying to figure how to talk to me was a lot of fun…
I’d love to do it all again next year! I hope to really improve this summer season and then come back to really experience some XC with the “big boys”…
Thanks again to you, Christine and Melanie to share in the experience! It was fantastic!

Please feel free to post the comments on the site. I’d be flattered.
If you’ll have us back for next year, I’ll make sure it happens again. I’ll be sure to say hi to everyone. I love to do it again!

See you at cloudbase…

Sincerely,
Robert Stockmann
Hi Brad et al.

Just wanted to let you know I had a fantastic time in Tenancingo! Both Daniel Miller and Daniel Pedraza were awesome...everyday they came by the house to pick me (and a couple of WA pilots) up for a ride to launch, and generally showed me a good time around the town as well. Daniel P. is doing an excellent job with the launch and every day it was little bit nicer with an extra rock etc taken out. I'm gonna send them both WCSC T-shirts since I didn't have space for them during my trip.

The flying is very nice as well...lots of opportunities for OR flying with all the different valleys etc converging in that area, and lots of roads and cheap taxis to get back to town.

The house was also excellent...rooms were neat and clean, lots of space and amenities like the wi-fi and laundry facilities. Very nice! And Manolo was really nice too...after I left for Valle he'd call every few days to see how I was doing. We tried several times to get together when he was in Valle for his horse-vet work but it never happened due to me flying in the comp during the days. We'll have to catch up next time I am in Mexico!

You guys have an awesome thing going for you...I really liked that Tenancingo is still undeveloped and more "adventure-flying" vs. Valle. I hope you get more pilots showing up and using your house, I know I will in the future!
