The above is a tabulation taken from the AMA Nats scoreboard. Due to the reduced contest schedule I will be doing a two-year Perky Postal covering what there is of 2020 and hopefully 2021 if happens.
I welcome more input. I only need each person's best score and the venue.
The above were all from the AMA Nats in Muncie.

Thank you, I have amended the scoreboard.
Bob Whitney is still number 1 by a wider margin.
-
I have received and reviewed the Dayton Cold Cash Speed Bash Perky scores. They DO NOT include any improved scores for Perky.
However, they do include two F2A scores in excess of 300 KPH.
-
We got to make a few first flights of the year for Perky today. Finally!
C. T. Schaefer 114.1 Nova Rossi - APC 6x5 - Pilot, CTS (The Geezer)
Ernie Evon 99.9 Cox APC 6.5x5 Pilot, Big Al
We have two official meetings coming up in November so there is a chance we can improve some.

As I said before, due to the shortage of events I will be doing 2020 & 2021 as a combined two-year event.
If anyone has a better number thus far, please post them.
-
Some new scores came in from Dayton & Middlesex.
We now have eleven names on the scoreboard.
The top is 116.40.
The average is 100.10
Due to reduced action in 2020, this is a TWO-year event, ending November 15, 2021.

Paul,
Where can I find the scoreboard online?

Paul,

You can't find it on line.
I publish it here. I will publish again after The Nats if anybody moves up.
-
Paul,
Are all the Perky event allowed to have the model shipped to the event an flown by someone there? Can we do a team entry with only one team member at the event?
Best, DennisT

Even before I assumed the job, proxy entries have been accepted. So you CAN ship the plane to a contest & have a crew fly it and submit a score.
It's a POSTAL contest, so we take people's word for things.
But we would draw the line at having two or more people submit scores with the same airplane.
There are unlimited attempts and a person can use several airplanes, but only a person's best score counts.
-
As it should be RAD
-
Paul,
Now that the NATS are over and we can get into the rest of the flying season, any idea what the 2021 Perky contest calendar is shaping up to be?
Best, DennisT
-
I would suggest going to any contest with pavement and getting the people to time your Perky. Historically, The Brodak Fly In and the AMA Nats were the only actual Perky contests.
I am aiming for the Michigan State Meet in Detroit and maybe an event in Dayton.
If they have something in Kalamazoo, I might take a poke at a Perky score.
-
Middlesex Modelers hold at least 3 official meets a year for Perky and Fox Speed. Check North East contest schedule for dates. TS
-
Hi Paul! Just wanted to let you know, my buddy and I went out for a flight and my Perky with a Fox .15 did 127.00 and I was wondering if it would count ??? ???? Oh, just so you know ... in case is makes any difference ... we were in his Cessna 172 at the time ;)

I have received and posted the Perky scores from the Dayton Cold Cash Speed Bash of 2021.
There are no changes in placements as a result, the same 12 flyers are still in the same order.
However, Carl Dodge is now closed to average.
Rouge Park in Detroit is still submarine and the 5" rain in the last day won't help. I hope to fly in Dayton in October.
-
Would it be possible to post the current standings? You mention 12 people but the only posting on standing shows 9 people.

4 Henry Nelson 106.96

Thanks!
-
St. Louis Midwest Speed Fall Classic results, including Perky. Please update the rankings. Thanks.
-
OK, I got it. 14 names on the list now.
Bill Hughes is on the average that the moment with 100.15.
He could be pulled off with some low scores. There isn't much room to increase the average since the fast guys have already logged in.
-
Peter Lott of South Africa weighed in with a score or 97.18 MPH, 9th place.
15 scores have been registered.
-
Having received the October 24th report from Middlesex NJ, Al Ferraro is now in first place at 116.95 MPH.
Bill Hughes is locked into Closest to Average. Computer simulation reveals that new scores of either 70 MPH or 115 would not knock him out of Closest to Average.
The only way Bill could lose this position would be for he himself to exceed 106 MPH.
