Outdoor Free Flight

Monday was the first day of official flying at the centennial Free Flight (FF) Nats. It’s hard to believe that 100 years have passed since the very first NAA Nationals, which predated the existence of the AMA by a full 13 years. Back in 1924, model aircraft competition was still a very new concept, often held at full-scale air shows and air races.

The Outdoor Free Flight (FF) Nationals (Nats) are back in Muncie, Indiana, this week, July 17-21.

Friday dawned clear and seasonable for the final day of the FF Nats.

Carryovers … F1B had a tie after Wednesday night between Patrick Mackenzie and Alex Andriukov.

Rain, rain, go away …

Talk about changing weather conditions!

The Nats is an experience.

The Outdoor Free Flight Nationals (Nats) are back July 25-29 … for (can you believe it?) the 95th running.
