The best guess our organizing group had at the meeting last fall was 25 competitors. Over the last 6 months the number of inquiries would probably indicate more than that....but as we all know there is usually a difference from I'm gonna to here I am ! Anyway we are planning on that estimate for the time being.
It should be noted that the venue is set up for the annual Route 66 Jets so our runway 4,003' by 75' is closed to full scale and does not intersect with the another runway of similar dimensions.
The Airport & City can accommodate a rather infinite number of competitors, helpers, supporters, family, spectators, tents, motor homes, etc.
Oh yea, I posted the Qualifier Tuesday and received the first Registration from Bryce on Wednesday so who knows what the opportunity will produce?
