No, I have not left the area, but did visit the Mini-Dome today. All the
information that Abram VanDover and John Kagan reported about the
unavailability of the Mini-Dome for future AMA Indoor NATS/USIC has been
confirmed by the presence of new basketball court lighting on the West
and East sides of the court, new banners on the N, E, and S sides, and a
new flag on the South side. This is consistent with all that was
reported earlier. A photo is attached.
Yes, I was still able to put up a few recreational flights with a toy RC
helicopter and a Chuck Markos Wright Stuff-Capacitor Science Olympiad
plane (Trial Event; see NFFS Sympo 2011). No serious indoor appears
likely in the Mini-Dome.
Thanks to all of you who are working on the contest in Champaign.
