NZ Central Districts Gliding Championships 24

Waipukurau, New Zealand,   February 17, 2024 – February 24, 2024

News Update

Friday 23rd and we wait for the sky to develop. It is grey high overcast with a westerly flow, calm on the ground.

There is heating getting through so there is hope we will fly.

We had 6 land outs yesterday with Alain Marcuse in a remote area east of Dannevirke, the retrieve crew thought there can't possibly be a flat paddock in here, but there was - a perfect paddock 100m from the farm house.
