Helicopters B/C [Possible mini SO, Satellite SO Replacement]

Post by bernard »

Helicopters is a Division B/C event that at some tournaments may be used to replace flight events (Elastic Launched Glider for Division B, Wright Stuff for Division C) for mini SO and Satellite SO format tournaments. Please refer to instructions from your particular tournament as the event might not be run at every tournament.

Virginia has added Heli as an optional event at regionals (basically a trial tbh) but we're probably sticking to Wright/ELG if we have in-person states.

Jeff, I just saw the schedule for the Michigan coaches clinic. Is Helicopters going to be a required event or a trial event?
