This is the map to Christopher Columbus Park located North of Grand Rd. on Silverbell. You can get to Silverbell
by either Camino Del Cerro or Grant Rd. Christopher Columbus Park is the is the Contest Site for the Vingage Stunt Championships (VSC).
At VSC 24 Classic Stunt will be flow over three (3) days using all three asphalt circles. Classic will be contested Thursday March 15th - Saturday
March 17th. One flight each day with the pilots moving to a different circle each day. The two highest scores for the three days of competition will be added together for the finnal
score and placings.
Pull Test and line size for Old Time and Classic Stunt will be per the 2009 - 2010 AMA rules for Control Line Precision Aerobatics. Scoring for Classic will
be per the 2007 - 2008 AMA rules for Control Liine Precision Aerobatics. This means that pattern points will be included in the scoring.
We added the following additional ruling starting with VSC 22: No more than two contestants can fly the same plane in the same event. Example: Contestant 'X' and contestant 'Y' can fly
the same plane in Classic but no one else. This goes for OTS and OTS Ign as well.
OTS Stunt will be contested Tuesday March 13th - Wednesday March 14th on two asphalt circles. OTS Ingition will be contested Tuesday March 13th - Wednesday March 14th
on Grass. Pilots meeting for OTS and OTS Ignition is 7:30AM. Official flying starts no later than 8:00AM.
Members of the Cholla Choppers and the Central Arizona Control Line Club (see logos below) together run and manage VSC.
March 13th thru 17th, 2012 will be the 24th running of the Vintage Stunt Championships.

If you have attended VSC during the past few years, you will be receiving in the mail (by the middle of November, 2011) the VSC XXIV flyer, your own personal copy so to speak.
It acts as a reminder and gets you thinking about VSC 24. Again pre-registration is required so please read the instructions on the flyer when it comes in the mail carefully. I
highly recommend that you place the flyer in plain sight (like the fridge) so you do not forget about sending in the registration portion of the flyer.
A place for your E:Mail address is provided for you to fill in if you have one. Jim Hoffman will use it to send you conformation that your entry fees have been received.
All contestants entering VSC 24 are required to sign the entry form where indicated. Please do not forget to do this.
Contestants who will be camping and spending nights in Christopher Columbus Park will need to provide the State and License Number on the RV, Camper, ETC. A place for
this information is provided on the entry form. We need this information to give to Parks and Rec. so that the authorities do not ask you to leave at a late evening hour.
