Hi Mike,
Actually, SO Glider and Helicopter do follow the AMA rules (per design, by the event creators).
Let's do it this way:
- SO Glider flown during the glider time slots on Saturday and Sunday
- SO Helicopter flown during the Helicopter time slot on Friday (If we get enough participants, we can decide to let them fly their Helicopters on the weekend, also)
- SO models will be processed along with the other AMA models.
- Walk-in registration for SO participants
- We will have certificates (and probably some swag) as additional prizes for the SO participants.
Also, let them know about the LPP Pro/Am - a great segue from their Friday and weekend morning flying. Encourage them to register for the Pro/Am in advance.
