Default F3B World Championships

Hi everyone,

Just wanted to let you guys that might not already be aware know that the F3B WC is coming up in July, it's being held in Lucerne, Switzerland. The US has a very strong team consisting of Mike Smith, Tom Kiesling and Aaron Valdes, all have great individual chances as well as the USA being strong contenders to medal again in the team scoring.

F3B is a multitask soaring event, very challenging and entertaining. The team has a website with more information on the event, as well as team bios and merchandise. We're trying to raise enough money to help offset the cost of the trip, Switzerland is a crazy expensive place to go and the pilots share the bulk of the expense. As well as travel and accomodation there is the cost of shipping models, winches and equipment.

The team would love your support, so if you'd like a shot at winning one of the molded sailplanes we have as raffle prizes, please buy a ticket or two. We'll be drawing the raffle June 23rd at the JR Aerotow. You don't have to be present to win...

Thanks,

Craig.
