Lodal model airplane pilots will have their first chance to fly their ship? in a contest under the 1941 rules at the Indiana Gas Model Ase sociation’s all-city meet March 30. Since rule changes were minor 1 is possible they will have little ef« fect on flight times, Even more ine teresting will be first performances of Zipper-type ships flying with the new Goldberg motor. That is if the fliers can get a ship ready This new motor, with which Carl | Goldberg won the association's ane | nual contest here last summer, has an increased power and lower dis= placement—just the thing for Zip= per design craft The contest at Stout Field will be rather a warmup meet tor a long series of contests which won't stop until late next winter. It will be open to all Marion County pilots regardless of the type ships they fly. The proceeds from a 25-cent entry fee will be split up for prizes in addition to trophies for first and | second, Kits, propellers and accese | sories. The total time for each ene try will be a three-flight average, Some 60 to 75 entries are expected to be along the starting line at 1:30 p. m. to continue their flights un= til sundown The fact that this meet is being held two months earlier than the first city-wide one last vear is ame ple evidence that model plane builede« img and lying locally has increased | nearly as much as commercial flye ing here has
