GLIDER BUILD-OFF CHALLENGE

One of the events we would like to hold on the day (depending on interest) is a model aircraft construction challenge...

Here's how it goes:

1. Standard equipment for all competitors (glue, covering, wood, etc.)
2. On the day - 1 hour to build a flying glider
3. Attached to a bungee cord (surgical tubing), each competitor stretches the bungee to the same point and lets go. Whichever one stays together and glides the furthest wins...

Any takers? PM me if you are interested. We'll take 10 competitors...

So the BaraG Fly In is just around the corner. The line-up for the day is as follows:

08:00—09:00 Arrivals and Registration
10:00—13:30 Sport Aerobatic Club Competition
12:30—14:00 Lunch and Anniversary Celebrations
14:00—15:00 Scale Model Display
15:00 onwards Departures

There have been some queries about period dress. PLEASE MAKE THE EFFORT! We're looking at things like appropriate hats, braces, plus fours, that sort of thing. Google "Goodwood Revivial Costumes" if you'd like some ideas.

Also, don't forget to RSVP to cwatson@stithian.com if you will be attending.

See you then!
