Location: Dinneen Field, 5770 Africa Rd, Galena, OH 43021
We have a beautiful flying site with 1000ft. x 150 ft. well groomed smooth grass runway with no obstructions. This is a great event for pilots wanting to try IMAC for the first time. Several experienced IMAC competitors will be available to provide training and flying tips for anyone that is interested in learning how to improve their precision aerobatic flying.
We will be flying the ALTERNATE SEQUENCES due to no overfly over the dam.

Novice Class on Saturday – FREE Entry
All pilots must be a member of the AMA
