Huntsville Funtest
For Cliff Hiatt


All con,
The Huntsville, AL heli club has agreed to host an AMA Class I, II, III and F3C (Schedule A and C) event/contest the weekend of November 10 - 11, 2007. The club will allow use to use their site (which I understand is really nice) for the event so long as 'we' run it. So, we'll do sort of what we do at Nashville, judge and score ourselves and run to Subway for lunch!

The club will be 'observing' the turnout and mechanics of the event in anticipation of hosting a 'real' contest next year. In short, we need to wholeheartedly support this event so we can havd it again next year and beyond. The FAI guys will be flying (trying to fly?) the '08 - '09 finals maneuvers (Schedule C), which should bring a few laughs!

Please chime in with your intent on attending this event, I'll try and keep a running tab. So far, I've got 5 'for sures'!

Best regards,
Cliff Hiatt

If you are planning on attending this event, please let me know so we can get an accurate count. If you have an interest in learning how to go about setting up a contest model and learning how to fly a contest, this would be a great place as the event will be very low key and we are planning to do a lot of teaching and set up work.
Let me know.

Can one of the local guys post directions to the Huntsville flying field. I'm not sure I can still find it.
