Flite Fest 2024 Information

Depends on what you get. I get on-site primitive camping and full event. There are single day and weekend passes if I remember correctly.

Do you remember how much that cost? I'm trying to price this whole event out.

Yeah, We usually use croc pots and charge phones and flashlights. Is there even showers? I hope Peter Scripol will attend again.

Yes, there are showers. If I were you I would invest in a solar generator.

Solar Generator.

Looked at my receipt from last year. $70 full event ticket. $70 full event primitive camping. + about $10 tax.

If you share a camping spot with others, you can knock some of the expense off.

Primitive camping spaces are big enough to hold quite a few people.

Does anyone remember how much a ticket to the event cost last year? I'm new and seeing if I can afford this LOL.

If I recall the prices for the full event were about, the pilot pass $40, the spectator pass $20 & the tent camping pass $60, the RV camping pass was a bit more as the RV sites were a bit larger than the tent sites. Both the tent & RV sites are primitive, no water or electricity. They also had day passes for those who could not attend the entire event.

The cost has gone up just about every year. This year we get an extra day of FF so the full event prices even more.

Just wondering if anyone has any details about what/if anything is required from pilots from Canada flying at Flite Fest in the US? (e.g., do you have to have a MAAC or AMA registration?

Yes, you need a AMA membership to fly at the event.

It’s not active yet, you can’t select dates.

Registration opens Feb 7th.

 

[Old Flyboy]

Even Canadians have to have the AMA membership? Do you need this to fly things below 250 grams as well?

 

[fliteadmin]

Yes, you need a AMA membership to fly at the event.

A quick correction: Flite Fest is an official FRIA, no AMA membership or any other requirements are needed. Come, fly and have fun!

Flite Fest 24 registration is OPEN!

There will be a full "strawberry" moon friday during flite fest this year.

Would it be possible to have a class on the Aura 5 at FF24? I have two that I just can’t setup properly and I’ve killed two kits with them.

Thank you!

We will have some fajitas waiting for you at the inflatable Llamacorn.

There were good showers, good food that wasn't that expensive. Build tents were a blast, especially late at night with the crazy Russians!

Peter was a disappointment. He wasn't very personable. Maybe I caught him at a bad time, or maybe he just didnt feel like chatting with "an old guy."

Don't know, don't care. If he shows up in combat, even with another super mega destroyer airplane, I'm gunning for it. ☠️
