Speed limit Combat in Hershet Pa. This Sunday 8/9

[Tom Luciano]

From Phil,
The usual rules- clean match bonus 100 pts.(this is a change to tighten
up the scoring)- neither plane lands or crashes because of a midair
collision or at least one full wrap of the lines.  AMA scoring.  Speed
limit is at least 7.3 sec/lap with no streamer.  We expect to see times
for 2 laps of about 16 seconds with a full streamer.  We'll discuss the
bonus at the pilot's meeting immediately prior to starting flying-
around 9:30-10:00am.

Location Sand Beach Road and Boathouse Road.  about 1 mile north of the intersection Sand Beach Road and Hershey Park Drive(on the north side).  The intersection is also marked with signs for PA 743(don't follow them).  Turn north onto Sand Beach.

I was a bit slow on the draw this Sunday 8/9/2020

I got excited for a minute then checked the drive. 750 miles, a little too far. Y'all have fun.

Why are you flying even slower than AMA slow rules which are already below 75MPH?  Your times are also incorrect. It's 7.3 seconds for TWO (2) laps with a streamer per AMA. 2 laps in 16 seconds LOL A stunt plane does two laps in roughly 10-10.5 seconds 75 MPH is actually 6.8 seconds for two laps.That's why it's 7.3 with a full AMA Fast streamer

  Phil just made a mistake. He knows the rules well. Tom will correct it I'm sure.
