We are fast approaching the next Chicken Drop scheduled for Sept 24 - 26. The Chicken Drop briefing will be at 1000 Saturday morning September 25th. You MUST attend the briefing to fly in the drop. You do NOT have to be FAST qualified to fly in the drop.
The event fee will be $25/person. Almost all the other costs for us have been covered by donations from the local populace. At the last Chicken Drop I spent almost $10,000 on food and booze. I expect this year to be just as good!We have 80 gallons of free smoke oil, first come, first serve. We also have a new wagon delivery system with an electric pump.There will be discounted prices on 100LL.
