Every attempt will be made to get in the rounds as planned. Days of the events will not change but the number of event rounds may be more or less in order to work around bad weather if needed. There will be a minimal break between classes.

For the 2016 NATS, we will once again be giving away "door" prizes.

1. $100 gas cards for every 500 miles driven to the NATS.
2. An engine for each pilot.
3. A NATS t-shirt.

Pilots must be registered with AMA and provide me with a shirt size by the deadline set by AMA (June 17, 2016) to be eligible.

William, Eric has been registered since Feb!! He was registered for all classes. However he can't get off work for all four days so he can't come for Open and SSC . I called and removed him from those classes and they apparently removed him from all five! I called back and got him re-enrolled for 2940, LimB and GNAT. So he is planning to be there for whatever 2948 is flown on Day 3, plus the other two classes! But he was registered for them for months! Sorry for the confusion
