With the Isaacson Winter Classic, Pan American Championship and Max Men in February we would like to have the USA and Canadian flyers that plan on attending sign up by mail before the three contest.

What is Icarex?
Icarex is still manufactured in Japan by Teijin company. When I spoke to them in February, they suggested to contact Vliegerop in Netherland who does sell Icarex World wide. Five years ago when Bonnie at Hang'em High did not have Red colour available, I ordered from them. The product at "Into the Wind" Chuck is talking about is "Nylon" and the weight is 40 gr per sq. meter. The fabric we are using is Icarex PC31 which is a polycarbonate coated ripstop polyester, 31 gr. per sq. meter. There are two type being manufactured. One with a square and the other with an oblong texture. The oblong is thinner and does not require nitrate coating (but harder to get).
