Past Years' Rallies

History

This event has been held continuously since 1964. We believe that it is the longest running Air Rally of it's kind in the country. A list of other air races and rallies can be found on the AirRaceCentral.com site.

  • The orignal destination was Las Vegas, Nevada.
  • In 1997 the destination was changed to Laughlin, Nevada.
  • In 2007 the destination was changed to Palm Springs, California.
  • In 2009 the destination was changed to Bend, Oregon.

Many things have been changed over the years, not just the destination. There have been several different scoring systems used. We have tried to summarize them based on the information we have, but sadly, our history is incomplete.

We do have complete scoring results for each year since 1979, except for 1981.


Rally Courses

Even more interesting for some are the courses we have flown. At the briefing held the day before the Rally, each team is provided with the Race Book for that year. The Race Book contains the procedures for the Rally, and more importantly, the checkpoints which define the course to be flown. The following links show the course flown and for some years provide a PDF copy of the Race Book.


Photo Galleries

We try to collect photos from each Rally and post them here for everyone to view. Enjoy!
