Evansville, Indiana — Grand Event

The Evansville Radio Control Model Airplane Club hosted this year's Grand Event. Frank Roales, associate vice president in Indiana, sent in the following report:

Attendance for this year's Grand Event in the Evansville, Indiana, area was somewhere between 3,500 and 4,000 people.

There were 825 buddy-box flights given in the course of the two-and-a-half days. All the time the flight lines were open, four flight stations were used. This was increased to five flight stations during one period.

Nine Sig LT-40s put in 275 flights with not even a broken propeller. Steve Bufkin, chairperson for the event, did a fantastic job. Members of seven area clubs showed up to help the Evansville club.
