As far as Flying Rules, there is no BOM in any flying events, we have a separate Concours competition. Only other major difference is that BOTH of your flight scores count !! - we reward flying skill and well as consistency just as we do on Top 20 day at the U.S. Nationals.
We also have a tremendous lineup for our raffle. We have kits, engines, fuel, Zap Glue, certificates and many other goodies. Bring your cash and your generosity. Remember, SPPA, Inc. is a non-profit group who uses these funds to promote the King Orange, control line stunt events and aviation careers.
Entry Fees are as follows:
Expert Stunt - $25.00
All Other Flying Events - $20.00
Concours Competition - FREE
Concours Banquet - $25.00
All late registration fees have been waived.
Please come pay us a visit and enjoy a great competition while you are here, down by the ole Suwannee River. Weather looks decent, so we should get all flights in.
