Albuquerque Aerostat Ascension Association

Latest Flying Event News

November’s Flying Events Competition found 28 pilots scanning in for a cold morning of flying. William Blizzard was the hare taking to the sky with a quick ground wind. Those that got airborne quickly had that same breeze and a chance of making it to the target. Those that waited for the ground wind to calm, found themselves struggling to get the distance and direction to the target. Two pilots made it close enough to drop a marker. Natasha Stanke (10.82m) and Bobby Richardson (25.40m). See how the scores and show up points feature in the overall competition by checking out the scores below as we head into the final month of scores for 2022.
