Jim and Bob about to launch



The Hutter flown by Nick Newton won the day with a cross country to Bicester. Having left his flying jacket in Graham's car, Nick set off wearing no less than 4 jumpers. The extra weight of these may well have been instrumental in his having to land out on the way back.
