All to play for |
David drew the
short straw on Friday morning and was the first to fly.
Following an interesting tow through a cloud, he managed to perform
all 11 figures in the correct order (which he himself declared
as an achievement...!) for a reasonably good score.
The cloud then
rolled in, and no more flights were flown that day.
Ready to roll |
Saturday was
a much better day and flying started early. Graham made a good
job of his Advanced class Unknown sequence. The rest of the
Sports class flew their Known 1 sequences, and the two beginners
flew their single sequence. Flying continued into the evening with
the Sports class flying a truncated Known 2 sequence from around
3000ft. David fell out of the top of his chandelle and suffered what
can politely be described as brain fade for the rest of his
sequence....
Final results,
Graham 3rd in class, David 5th
in class. Charles Baker from Lasham was 3rd in the Intermediate
class.
Graham with yet another medal |
