Are any of you guys going to do the Icarus Challenge? Closest to 10K on an I without going over 10K…. $5 entry, $5 per flight, $5 fine if you go over 10K. Google up “Icarus” if you don’t understand why we call it the “Icarus” challenge.
A bit of history here– when we concocted this contest, the club I record was something like 5,500′. We set our sights high, and more than one flyer broke 10K that year.
This is a very, very cool contest. I would like to fly in it again, but not by myself. Y’all hike up your skirts and get in the game! (that was a challenge)

Bob Messner made an Icarus flight at MHM – at least he paid for one, but I never heard the results…

I’m in.

We are Good to Go with our scheduled and approved launch on Saturday April 5th and Sunday April 6th, from the North Site, subject to change – Mostly cloudy and High Winds predicted. Range and waiver should be active by 9AM on Saturday. The Pawnee National Grassland remains fragile and dry, so extra precautions are in order. Please stay on the authorized roads and please don’t park more than 100’ off the road at the flight line.
