2007 Tucson Aerobatic Shootout Pilots Announced!

The Tucson International Modelplex Park is the destination of choice on October 3 - 7, 2007 for many modelers worldwide. All year pilots have been practicing and competing in IMAC competitions. Gaining points is the name of the game and getting to that top spot in standings is the goal. The Tucson Aerobatic Shootout (TAS) is one of the elite competitions in the modeling community. Bringing top pilots from all over the globe to a central location makes the best of the best put their talents up against each other for a contest to remember.

Earlier this week the pilot list was posted and Flying Giants would like to formally congratulate all of the selected pilots and wish them the best of luck in their quest to become 2007 TAS Champions!
