FAC Non-Nats 2013

摘要

The bi-annual 2013 Flying Aces Club (FAC) Non-Nats contest was held once again this past July in Gene-seo, New York, on the beautiful sod airfield of the 1941 Historical Aircraft Group. From Wednesday, July 17 through Saturday, July 20, in the midst of a midsummer heat wave, a hundred or so stick and tissue scale modelers gathered to show, fly and compete with their latest creations. For as long as there's been an FAC Na- tionals, there has been an FAC Non-Nats. From the beginning in the late 1970s, this aptly named off-year meet was intended to be a more casual and informal event. The Non-Nats provides a great venue for the FAC faithful to gather and fly, while allowing additional time to have that new model developed and ready to compete at the flagship FAC Nationals contest the following year.
