Weather permitting, I will be hosting the local Syracuse version of the Annual Worldwide Ringmaster Fly-A-Ton this year on Saturday, October 6 beginning at 10:00am at the STARS (Syracuse Thunderbirds Aero Radio Society) flying field in Phoenix, NY. This event is being held to help celebrate the 11th Annual Worldwide Ringmaster Fly-A-Thon sponsored by the ‘Brotherhood of the Ring‘. The goal is to have as many pilots as possible record as many Ringmaster flights as possible in order to help contribute to this worldwide event. With that said, the real goal is to have as much fun as possible flying Ringmaster planes with other like-minded flyers!
During the Syracuse event, the STARS facility will have beverages and snacks for sale at reasonable prices as well as a gas grill for anyone who may want to cook up some burgers or dogs. There are also outhouse facilities provided.
The long range weather forecast for flying is iffy at this point (Mixed clouds and sun with scattered thunderstorms. High around 70F. Winds SSW at 5 to 10 mph. Chance of rain 50%.). If the weather proves to be a problem, there will be a rain date set.
Everyone is invited to come and fly Ringmasters…bring any version you may have. If someone does not have a Ringmaster, I will be providing one for anyone to fly. If interested, let me know and I can provide additional details. I can be contacted through this link: Contact
I have attached a flyer with all the information needed for anyone to participate in this event no matter where in the world you live. We are trying to set another world record for number of flights so please consider joining in!
This Syracuse flight session will NOT be exclusively for Ringmasters as this flying session will also be BYOP (Bring Your Own Plane). So come out and fly!
