As long as you guys are gonna have so much fun...what about a flour
bombing contest?
Put a one pound bag of flour in either paper or plastic and the
"bomber" drops it out a window or the door while the "Captain" does the
flying and safety stuff.
Yeh it makes a mess for a while but no one seems to care a whole lot
and its all biodegradeable if you use paper bags. One helllllluva lot
of fun as well as instructive.
You can limit the number of tries to make it competitive.
When we finished the crop dusting season we'd do a flag drop contest
and try to drop a flag into a bucket sitting on the runway. Amazing how
tight the contest got and how nit picky we got about accuracy. Then
we'd go drink beer and eat delicious BBQ, tell war stories and make
some up as we went along. Kind of keeps the fun in flying.
