Re: GreatPlanes E-Fest 2008!!
Do you have to preregister for the last plane flying full contact event? If it's open to all, are there any rules regarding munitions, pyrotechnics, power tools, ultra high intensity lasers, multiple tracking fire and forget radar, broad band jamming devices, knock out gas, itching powder, brass knuckles, 10 man "spotter" teams with ninja training, paint ball equipped cheer leader team, vacation opportunities and "discounts" on upper end kitchen appliances for judges, or construction/power plant limits?
Just wondering as I just decided a minute ago this could be really fun!! Thoughts?
