I'm a new Cj owner looking for some info on the Lamar clinic.  



1.  Will I need a parachute or any insurance endorsements?

2.  Are significant others allowed in the back seat?

2a.  Will there be other significant others?

3.  Do I need to be in attendance for all days?



Thanks in advance,

Mike

Mike,

     From the RedStar site:



      What To Bring To The RPA Event

      Besides a great attitude...



      All RPA events, from All Red Star in the West, Oliver in the North, 

Georgetown in the East, to Waycross in the South are a great time for any 

RPA member or potential member.



      If you are heading to the event, here is what you should consider 

bringing with you:



        a.. A check book! The RPA events are free to register for, but each 

has a small event fee to cover costs.

        b.. Your airmens certificate, medical, and experiemental aircraft 

documents - we don't inspect, but lets carry them in case the local FSDO has 

a need to (it's never happened, and you most likely will not see them at an 

RPA event unless its co-located with an airshow)

        c.. If you are involved in Formation flying at an RPA event, please 

bring and wear a flight suit! Although you can wear street clothes to an RPA 

event/Clinic, you will find that just about everyone has a flight suit on 

when around the ramp at RPA events. Just put "flight suit sales" in google 

and you will get a ton of hits. For information on Nomex and improved fire 

retardent materials, see "Safety Bulletins" under the Communiciation secion.

        d.. If you will have an RPA instructor on board providing FAST or 

Tactical formation training, please bring a parachute. The FARS require a 

parachute for the backseater as our formation flying meets FAR definitions 

of aerobatic flight - if you don't own two, you can arrange to barrow one if 

the instructor doesn't have his own.

      Aircraft:



        a.. If your aircraft is used in dual seat formation training, these 

apply:

        b.. Front to rear communication capability (and we aren't talking 

about "yelling real loud" !

        c.. Rear cockpit radio trasmission capability - so your backseater 

can transmit if the need arises.

        d.. Aircraft is good working order - now that's a no brainer! - Fly 

safe!



      -As for GIBs, my wife wouldn't let me go if she couldn't play also!

      -Depending on your level of expertise, the more days you can be there 

the better, but some come late and some leave early.  There is a low level, 

timed multiple target bombing competition on Friday morning. It will be flow 

in two ship elements with randomly drawn wingmen.  Saturday morning, flour 

bombing, spot landing, balloon burst, etc. events are planned.  Scott "KONG" 

McMillian should be sending out a schedule of events soon.  Contact him at 

Aviatr(at)aol.com .

      -Everyone who's coming that hasn't signed up yet needs to get signed 

up soon so KONG has a better idea of who is coming and what types/levels of 

training need to be scheduled.

Hi Mark,



Thanks for the quick reply.   



Does the formation syllabus require a GIB?  I am previous military but don't own a parachute (yet).

All kinds of significant others this year will be there.  I know of at least 4 Female Gibs this year. Hey Mark maybe he is calling CJ's significant others and not talking about Gibs? Show up at Lamar you won't regret it. Bring your Gib and give her a camera.  Mark told you the rest.  We stay at the Cow Palace in Lamar and have great Limo  service to and from the hotel. Don't forget to ask for the Red Star Special rate.

No. But bring your computer and plotter! Without a GIB, you will be busy

this year.

At the present time, there are four (two sets of two) Strong Squadron Seat parachutes for use in a CJ or YAK available for sale on Barnstormers.
