The final results are in for the 2004 regional series competition. Forty-five (45) competitors out of 107 total series participants receive awards. Fifty-six of the 107 entrants successfully competed at the 3 or more contests needed to qualify for the series in their respective region.
The regional series began in 2002 with 60 pilots competing for the series titles in 2002, and 80 participating in 2003. To be eligible, a pilot must fly at least three contests during the year (two for the Northwest Region due to unavailability of contest sites). If more than three contests are flown, the highest scores are used to arrive at each participant’s total percentage. First, second and third place trophies are awarded to qualified participants in each category (Primary - Unlimited) in each of the six regions. Trophies are sent to the Chapter Presidents of the winners in each region for awarding at an event held in the local area such as a Chapter meeting or first contest of the next season.
