Magic Stuff Too
Unlike Doug I will be at the finals, but I'm there to fly. I will have the Magic Bag of Tricks but if you need some specific part, Palm Pilot, cable or spare timer and you know now you need to ask for it at This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. to make sure that you get what you need. I do have timers on hand, my stock is a little low on some models and they're being made, hopefully in time for the Sierra cup.

2010 Southwest FAI Challenge
October 30 & 31, 2010
Boulder City, Nevada
(Reserve Day November 1, 2010)
The Team Finals is certainly on all FAI Free Flighter's minds right now, but as you begin to make plans for your post-Finals contest season consider the Southwest FAI Challenge in Boulder City, Nevada. This is an Americas Cup Contest with a full FAI free flight venue with a few other events included as well. This year we have included Vintage FAI Power. The El Dorado Dry Lake bed measures about a mile and a half by four miles of completely unobstructed, bare, flat flying area. This is the same site where the SAM Champs are held in alternate years. It is about a 35 minute drive from the world famous Las Vegas Strip and it's genuine world class entertainment and dining. Boulder City (about a 15 minute drive) boasts it's own wonderful dining spots and lower key accommodations.
Anyone who has followed the history of this meet knows getting approval to use the lake bed is not always a guarantee. For this year, the AMA sanction is in hand and thanks to the generous help of the Boulder City Chamber of Commerce, our lake use permit has been approved. The trophies are finished and the time cards are printed. We're ready to go. Come join us.
