Never competed before? Started competing but want to really
understand the in’s and out’s of competition flying - what is the “start clock”
game anyway? What is a leading bonus and how can I get one? What does this
Flytec instrument do, other than beep at me? Should I lower my sprogs? Who is
Dr. Jack and what is a RASP? How do I choose which comps to go to?.

Get the answers to these questions and many more along with personalized
in-flight instruction from the worlds best. From May 10 - 15, 2014 Flytec USA
will be hosting the first ever Camp Flytec. We’ll be inviting no more than 25
pilots to join us the week before the Flytec Americus Cup at Souther Field in
Americus, Georgia for the best and most personalized competition training
available.

Camp Flytec includes:

• Six days of specially tailored, scored competition tasks
  (weather permitting);


• daily ground school courses on instrument setup and use,
  landing approaches, thermaling techniques, micrometeorology, racing
  techniques, competition rules, equipment tuning and overall competition
  strategy;


• small group (no more than three to four pilots per instructor)
  in air, on task instruction via radio with a different top ranked, world
  class instructor each day - every participant will get an opportunity to fly
  with every instructor;


• “Cross Country Racing” course book written by Paris Williams
  and other written course materials to take home and study after the clinic;


• retrieve and lunches provided daily;


• nightly informal “roundtable” debriefing of day’s task with
  instructors and other teammates;


• optional Elektro Tow landing clinics for all interested (extra
  fee for this supplement);


• closing dinner and awards;


• Flytec speed sleeves;
