All AMA and FAI Cat. IV indoor events may be flown. Certificates will be
awarded for all events with 3 or more entrants.
Reminder- record attempts, outside of the contest flights, must have 2
timers per AMA and FAI rules.
*Hangar Rules:*
Due to occupancy restrictions for this event, by the owners, you MUST be
pre-registered and on "THE LIST" to enter the base.
Absolutely no arguing with the CD, the job is hard enough. You may
discuss your point and then accept the decision.
NO smoking inside the building. Smoking is allowed outside but not
within 50 ft of any structure.
Carry out all trash, including cigarette butts.
NO running inside the building, except during a hand launch.
NO pets.
There is no water. There is no electricity. There will be a porta-potty.
There are good skylights but you might want to bring a battery powered
work light.
Tables and chairs will not be available.
Models that get stuck in the rafters, or on the mezzanine, are lost.
There is NO climbing to retrieve a model. There should be some long
poles and helium available.
Do not go within 50 ft. of the construction curtains toward the north
end. Do not take any photos of the construction, even in the background.
Do not allow a model to go into that area. Everyone will need to sign a
Non Disclosure Agreement about that construction.
Keep the doors closed as much as possible. The opening of a door can
disturb the air for several minutes.
