2021 North Island AkroFest
5 FEB 2022 AT 09:00 – 6 FEB 2022 AT 17:00
Mercer Airfield
RESCHEDULED due to COVID Level 3 Restrictions
Hello summer! And hello to the second annual North Island Akro Fest, awarding the Langley Marshall Trophy, in memory of Brian Langley and Paul Marshall, passionate Northshore Aero Club aerobatic instructors and stalwarts.
There will be category winners and the presentation of the Langley Marshall Trophy to the pilot scoring the highest overall percentage across all categories in the judged competition flights.
Past winners have typically (but not always) been from the lower categories, so everybody has a chance to win the BIG Trophy.
If you are new to competition aerobatics, there are many 'how-to' articles on the NZAC website too.
Hangarage, overnight parking and fuel available.
Mercer Hotel Backpackers (http://www.mercerhotel.co.nz), located on the airfield, has accommodation:
· Bunk Beds - $ 35.00 per person per night
· Queen Beds - $ 70.00 per room per night
Facilities include a full kitchen, BBQ, TV lounge, and laundry facilities. Bed linen supplied but BYO towel.
Contact Christine to book - Email: Info@mercerhotel.co.nz
Phone: 09 232 6767
Helpers required both days to assist with ground duties (no helpers, no flying!)
No experience is required for many of the roles – get involved to learn more about our sport.

Please register too (no membership or entry fee required for Helpers)
Entries close November 18th (late entry fee of $50 after that)
