Clear Blue Sky -- a roadrally with a Flying theme

Lots of people who like cars also like airplanes. If you are one of those, don't miss our next event, the Clear Blue Sky roadrally. The run starts at Cavanaugh Flight Museum in Addison, where a number of interesting planes are on view. Then, leaving the Addison Airport area, we will travel the byroads of North Texas passing a number of airfields, large and small. You will have some questions to answer along the way. We will end at the Vintage Flying Museum at Meachum International Airport in Fort Worth. Here you and your car will be photographed in front of a WWII B-17 bomber, on the tarmac. You will have plenty of time to see the other planes and attractions at the museum.

After a break for scoring and lunch in the area, trophies will be awarded.

Registration opens: 9 am on Saturday, July 31
Mandatory novice safety briefing at 9:45am, with a rally school immediately following. The first Car will leave the start at 10:31am

The rally flyer will be posted soon at www.texasscca.org/rally.html . It will have more information.

I won't be able to make it up but that sounds really fun. Pics w/ the plane should be cool.

I hope there will be another event, because I have to sadly miss this one. I love both cars & flying.

We will have two more rallies this year. One out towards Possum Kingdom Lake (11SEP), and the other to Paris for the Pumpkin Festival (23OCT)! Neither one has anything to do with flying....I'll ask Richard to take us by some dinky airfield out in the country......

This sounds very interesting. But being a new guy in town, may be challenging to find a Navigator.

But sure sounds like fun.

If you have trouble finding someone, email me at rally@texasscca.org. Maybe some navigator has asked me to find her a driver.
