Is this a yearly Contest? I would go but I'll be in California for the Chino Air Show that weekend.

Hi Robert,

It is actually "twice" yearly contest.  In May every year and again in October.  Great times at both!  I have been going for over 20 years.

Hi Will,

It is a "definite maybe" for Aaron and me.  I still cannot fly, and Aaron had not been able to practice.  Hopefully both will change in the next couple weeks.

question,  can we enter both classic and n-30 if we have a plane for each??  at Huntersville
Title: Re: Huntersville NC Contest May 4 and 5 , who is coming
Post by: Will Davis on April 23, 2013, 05:00:34 PM
Bob,

We are having nostalgia 30 only, hopefully in the near future we will have the extra room for a additional circles,  We have 4 now, but would like to have  paved circles on end of rc runway

then we will consider having both classes, (n 30 and classic )until then we have chosen to run just n30 and not combine  the event with classic on one circle

See you in a couple weeks

 N-30 covers everything at least 30 years old so includes all old time and classic
