Falcon X-C Comment & Log Book

  That log has been replaced by this Falcon X-C log (as of 11/6/06). Post here

Meanwhile, have fun!

Northwing EZY and any other single surface hang glider.            

What tasks?: 1) Open, straight line distance; 2) out and back (at least half 
way back -- thermal flight not ridge run) with miles multiplied by 1.3) 
triangle (all the way back to start) with 1.5 multiplier. The "new" two 
additional tasks were effective 08/01/02.

Where: All of the US as divided into 4 sections in an attempt
to make skill not site be the determining factor for the 
winners plus the rest of the world as a single (at this moment) 
World group due to some foreign entries. 

Prizes will be awarded for all areas for all "classes".

     West (Regions 1,2,3,4,& 5 east of route 5)

     Central (Regions 6,7,& 11)

     East (Regions 8,9,10, & 12)
                      And
     "World"for the rest of the world. Yes, you can be the winner
in the "Falcon X-C Contest World Class".  All entrants are 
eligible for that title regardless of primary region entered.
**See the bottom for new (02/20/02) World class/division changes.      

Why: Prizes generously donated to reward pilots who fly for 
     sheer enjoyment and go places. Prizes may be added at 
     any time by sponsoring dealers, schools or any interested party.

Who: Any Hang 2 and up.  Pick the appropriate class to enter:

     "Pro" (Hang 4), "Amateur" (Hang 3), or "Recreational"  (Hang 2)
Towing?  Yes with a maximum release altitude of 2000'.

How?  Pre-registration is preferred and makes it easier for us (see forms below) 
but if not --
1) Get landing witness for any XC flight. 2) Send us notification on the form below  
of the flight within one week of the flight. 

Submit all flights (within 1 week of flight). Who knows what will win?

Entry Fee?  There is NO ENTRY FEE, but a self addressed
     stamped envelope is required for any correspondence
     requiring a return (i.e.: entry form etc.).
     E-mail correspondence and entry forms are acceptable, in
     fact, they are preferred.

Stupidity or unsafe behavior automatically disqualifies you.
Please no nit picking. This is for fun---serious fun.
