If there were an olympics for flying, this sort of thing would be one of the events:
At Fleming Field in South St. Paul today, pilots participated in a series of competitions including the "bomb drop." The bombs consisted of flour in a paper bag tied with a streamer.
It's an easier task in some airplanes than others.
What's your plan for celebrating the end of the summer?

We'll be launching pop bottle rockets! Three generations and I built them myself.
