2019 Big Spring Nationals
I wrote to pilots:
We are very much looking forward to the Big Spring Nationals in August. We trust
that you are also. Its great that this year it will also be the test
competition for the 2020 Pan-American Championships.
As you know we have to bring everything to Big Spring to run a championship.
This includes the Dragonflies from Wilotree Park. Gregg Ludwig will already have
his trike in Texas, even though he now lives in Florida.
As you can no doubt see from the aerotow fee, this is an expensive proposition
and we need to know well in advance of the competition how many pilots are
coming this year. As we have informed almost all of you previously, your status
in the pilot registration needs to be marked confirmed in order for you to
reserve a spot in the competition. The number of pilots with confirmed status
will determine the number of tugs that we will have at Big Spring.
For example, if we have 50 confirmed pilots we will have a total of 5 tugs at
Big Spring. We currently have 53 pilots registered and 13 confirmed pilots.
You can see the pilot list here:
https://airtribune.com/2019-big-spring-nationals/pilots.
The number of spots reserved on July 1st will determine how many tugs we will
have at Big Spring. If we have only 13 pilots confirmed, as is the case now,
Gregg might be the only tug pilot there.
So to make this competition a success we need your cooperation. If you are
coming to the 2019 Big Spring Nationals you need to take the steps necessary to
become confirmed. They are as follows, and as found here:
https://airtribune.com/2019-big-spring-nationals/info/details__info:
1) Pay $250 entry fee here:

2) Sign waivers and medical information form:
http://ozreport.com/onlinewaivers.php or:

Pilots not confirmed by July 1st will be so noted and only if there are spots
available will they be allowed to enter the competition. Again, the number of
spots available will be determined by the number of tugs that we have available
at Big Spring and therefore by the number of pilots confirmed on July 1st..
If you are registered, but not coming to Big Spring we would very much
appreciate hearing from you also so that we can delete your entry from the pilot
list. In this case please email Davis at <davis> saying that you wont be coming.
If everything goes to hell in a hand basket (i.e. the meet is canceled), you
will receive a 100% refund.
Again, looking forward to having a great time as always in Big Spring. Hope to
see you there.
