The waiver holder asks that we each look carefully at the waiver before signing, and include your name, pilot cert #, and insurance company name when you sign (everybody who flies in the box must have IAC contest-level liability insurance- if you fly at contests, you've probably got it already). Also, please be sure to obey the low altitude limit of the box!

Must be a pilot or know someone who is (two place aerobatic aircraft with safety pilot may be available). Aircraft flown dual will receive a safety inspection similar to a contest tech-inspection.

None! Anyone not in the class flying is qualified and encouraged to judge.

• Each participant will fly one flight
• Each Judge scores 0-50 points, based on whatever criteria they choose to apply
• Highest score wins the Class
• Ties will be decided by a Fly-off for pink slips

• You will receive a sequence of five unknown figures.
• Embellishments are encouraged. Judges may reward them if they can tell they are embellishments and not mistakes.
• You will modify the sequence by adding three of your favorite FAI or non-FAI figures.
• Engage smoke at will.

• We will post two unknowns at registration-- Red and Gold.
• Pilots select Red or Gold class, whichever looks fun for them.
• The judging line may penalize or reward pilot selection of class.
• Pilots in the Red class form the Red Team
• Pilots in the Gold class form the Gold Team
• Teams are encouraged to adopt a name.

Three beautiful Blue Bowl trophies will be awarded for the top finishers in each class.

Contestants: equivalent of one half hour worth of fuel in your aircraft, or 30 bucks.

Participants: ten bucks for food all day. deal!
