The Great Air Race
« on: March 04, 2005, 07:13:17 AM »
The air race will run each week in SEA Arena. The winner of the race would qualify for the end of month race and each monthly winner will qualify for the year end race (Championship). The event will start or the checkered flag goes off at 10:00 est / 22:00 hrs. Here are the rules I have for now,


1- You must be a team of 2 Pilot and Co pilot
2- 1 pilot flys to the destanation while the co pilot is attached when they land succesfully the Co pilot must up and the pilot that just flew joins him for the ride back to the finish line.
3- The winner of the race picks the plane for the next week.
4- All Planes must carry 100% fuel.
5- Any shooting you are disqualifed
6- No belly landings
7- There will be a mission posted and you must follow the way points. If you are not in the mission you will be disqualified.
8- friendly dot dar will be on to watch the planes on the map if anyone tries to take a short cut it will be noticed and you will be disqualiafied

Good idea.  Do the teams have to fly the same plane (i.e. everybody flies a Mustang) or will mixed types be allowed?

What days will the races be scheduled?

Can we fire guns to lighten the airframe?

Sounds like top fun.

Pity I'm in UK and your times will be in the early hours of the morning.
