JULY 17TH FUNFLY
On July 17th We will have the second of three fun fly events at the field. Trim flights at 9 pilots meeting at 9:30 and events start at 10. There will be donuts in the am and lunch around 12:00.
The 4 events for the day will be:
Balloon bust - Use three helium-filled balloons. One tied to 50 foot Crepe Paper (important to use crepe paper (aka party streamer) so that it just snips and doesn't wrap in prop like string), the second balloon at 25 feet and the third at 5/10 feet. Everyone gets 3 high-speed passes at each balloon (I.e. they have to be full throttle parallel to flight line passes). You make up some points for breaking them.. but usually the bust is so rare, the round of applause when someone does break them is reward enough. Lots of fun.. really a "chance event" (it's hard!)
obstacle coarse- To be announced. ( ground course)
Most Touch and goes in 2 min.
and a Blind time flight draw from a hat.. everyone gets a different time.
Thanks and hope to see you out at the field.
