Most model aircraft flown simultaneously-SEFF
sets world record
[May
21] ATLANTA,GA, USA--A new World Record was set at the Southeastern
Electric Flight Festival, near Altlanta Georgia, U.S.A.
for the total number of R/C model aircraft flown at the same
time within a period of one minute: 100 planes.
Ric Vaughn was event co-coordinator for the
attempt which exceeded the standing record of 49 models (set
in South Africa) with no less than 113 launches.
100 planes remained in the air for the required
time.
"During the range check we had a total of 59 2.4GHz
systems on and bound at the same time" said Vaughn, "Sky space
was not a problem, most participants said they had plenty
of room to fly, but there was one midair, which cost us a
plane.
All and all, it went way better than I thought
it would." (enlarge
