CL Stunt

On Wednesday, the contestants were greeted with cloudy skies, light winds and mid to upper 60s for temperatures. The winds, once the official flights started, stayed in one direction. So in the words of Sergeant Shultz from Hogan's Heroes, the day was Be-u-ti-ful!

Today, contestants were greeted with cool temps in the low 60's. It was cool enough that I even warmed the vent air just a bit in the car. No AC was needed this morning. On the way back to the motel, however, the car's AC was set to max, with all nozzles pointed at me!

On Monday, July 7th, there were three events being held: Old Time Stunt (OTS), Classic, and Nostalgia 30.

Beginner and Intermediate classes of Control Line Precision Aerobatics were flown on Sunday July 6th. There were two entrants in Beginner with seven in Intermediate. These events were flown on the grass circles. Grass is much more forgiving, than asphalt in case of an accident.

Simply put, Control Line (CL) Precision Aerobatics is an event where a builder of a model airplane is judged not only on how well they build their plane, but also how well they fly it in a prescribed flight pattern involving aerobatics.

The rooster crows, and the sun rises one last time for the 2024 AMA Control Line (CL) Precision Aerobatics Nats. The light brightens, and the words on the last page of the Nats’ history book come into view.

That rooster is at it again. It woke up the sun bright and early, so that the sun can illuminate the words on the last page of the 2024 AMA Control Line (CL) Precision Aerobatics Nats’ history book.

Again, that annoying rooster crowed, waking up the sun. Why does it always have to crow so early? So, now that the sun is starting to wake again, it is starting to illuminate the words on the history page for the August 8 Control Line (CL) Precision Aerobatics events.

As the rooster crows, the sun sort of starts to shine, illuminating the words for the page of August 7.

As a new day breaks and the rooster crows, the sun starts to illuminate the words on the history page of August 6 at the 2024 AMA Control Line (CL) Precision Aerobatics Nats.
