Chapter 52 is planning to wrap up the Northeast aerobatic season in style, with the 1st Annual Blue Bowl Aerobatic Event!

The Blue Bowl is not an official IAC contest, with all those formal rules and judging criteria. It's just a last chance, before the snow flies, to get together and have some flying fun! Here are the details:

WAIVER INFO

The waiver holder asks that we each look carefully at the waiver before signing, and include your name, pilot cert #, and insurance company name when you sign (everybody who flies in the box must have IAC contest-level liability insurance- if you fly at contests, you've probably got it already). Also, please be sure to obey the low altitude limit of the box!
