No...we are not dropping real bombs or any pyrotechnics.  Otherwise, we don't care what you drop or how you drop it.  Official Bomb Drop event will take place on Saturday, May 10th.  Dry camping Friday and Saturday night.  Night flying Friday and Saturday night.

Overview: this is a fun and challenging event that is a favorite for pilots and spectators.  A target will placed midfield on the furthest side of the runway.  Multiple pilots will be taking off, making low (practice) passes, dropping their payload and landing all at the same time.  Pilots will do their best to coordinate with each to avoid dramatic events while trying to drop their payload closest to the target.
