Interestingly enough, there has been very little correlation between experience (hours wise) and performance in the competition. The winner of last years event had 100 hours, and beat several 1000+ pilots.
Those of you who are not able to compete due to being chronologically challenged (as I am) are welcome to come along anyway and assist us!
