After lunch, we drew teams for the three trophy events and started the fun fly. The first event was the Blacksheep Scramble. In this 2 man team event, each pilot took off from the circle with one pilot flying three loops and then landing and the other flying three rolls and landing. Time started when the first pilot left the staging circle and stopped when the last pilot had his plane stopped in the center staging circle. Best time wins and it was very close. And the winners were:
1st place - Dillon McBee and Matt Shelton, 31.12 seconds
2nd place - Tom Carlyle and Parker Hall, 32.63 seconds
3rd place - Joe Hartsock and Don Schmedake, 45.49 seconds
1st place - Bryan Baumer and Blake McBee, 255 points
2nd place - Dillon McBee and Matt Shelton, 225 points
3rd place - Tom Carlyle and Ralph McBee, 210 points
1st place - Bryan Baumer, Parker Hall and Ralph McBee, 2:07.4
2nd place - Tom Carlyle, Joe Kosiba and Don Schmedake, 2:11.9
