Hello to all, my name is Dan Kane and I am the president of the NMPRA. As the representative for the AMA's SIG (Special Interest Group) I will be helping Marty to work through the details of the event. For those that have never been at the Muncie site here is some additional information.
1. The pylon site does have 110V power at two different locations in the pits. 1 location is near the scoring tent is primarily used for scoring. However, we can utilize extension cords and pull from the same tap. A second location is behind the pits closer to the bathroom. This too can be tapped into via extension cords and can power the pits. In the past many have brought their own generators. This is your choice.
2. The NMPRA along with Dub Jett and Mike Langlois rent a very large tent for all the competitiors. The warbird guys are welcome to utilize this space during your event. The cost is $10 per spot and the money is donated back to the Cliff Telford Scholarship fund. Keep in mind that this space is also reserved for the pilots competing in the events following the warbird event. We need to pay close attention to make sure that spots are reserved prior to the event and we do not take any additional space that is allocated to another pilot. Towards the end of January after the AMA registration forms are published the Tent registration process will be listed on the NMPRA website. Stay tuned for details.
More details to come. I will periodically check back in here and hopefully I can answer any questions you may have.
