Come flying at the World's best foot launching sites 13th October – 20th October 2007

Come and start off the 2007 season with some of the best flying this side of the Moon! The picturesque Hinterland of South East QLD at this time of the year can produce the unstable conditions that saw many of last year's pilots breaking PB's and cracking the 200km milestone. 

With most of the national team and a strong International contingent expected again this year, you not only get the opportunity to learn from or compete with the 'guns' but also to compete against your peers in the Best of the Rest category. The institution that is 'Red Faces' will be even better this year with the move of the HQ back to the better suited Moriarty Hall. 

If you're interested, Indy Race day is the Sunday 21st October. Please see below for website link.
