Default 2016 Region 2 - May 23-28 - Mifflin County Airport - Reedsville PA

It's never too early to sign up for Mifflin!
Monday May 23 - Saturday May 28 (Practice Day Sunday May 22)

http://www.ssa.org/Contests?cid=2336

A few items of note:
Mifflin Soaring Assoc has taken over sponsorship of the contest. Karl and Iris are still part of Team Mifflin, they're just are taking a much-deserved break from 20+ years of contest management. MSA will carry on in the fine tradition they have established!

The contest is 6 days long this year. All y'all attending the 18m Nationals in SC have time to drive up on Saturday and not miss any of the contest, including the practice day. A couple of pilots are already planning to do this.

We will have an "OLC" class for pilots who want to participate but not fly in the normal regional contest classes. Pilots may select their own tasks or fly the FAI or Sports task. Flights will be scored using the OLC and daily best performances will be recognized. Coaching and mentoring will be available. It's a great way to experience competition flying! If you are interested in flying the OLC Class, just register as a Guest and I'll contact you individually with other details.

Whether it will be your first or 100th time, come fly Mifflin!
