Please, make your travel arrangements now and free up your last weekend in September for this great event. The preliminary plans include a seminar on Friday morning or early afternoon, and then World Air Games (WAG) selection contest for those interested in getting more points towards a free trip to Italy next year, or those who just want to play along! The WAG event is a lot of fun, and you will not be disappointed even if you just do it for fun. Saturday and Sunday we will have our usual hard core competition with the best pilots of the East Coast and hopefully several from the West Coast! The Fly-Offs on Sunday are a huge spectacle for everybody. Please, register early to reserve your frequency and show your support! We would love to hear from you!
