Day 8

The final day.

To make my joy complete, 3J (JS3, 15m) is today flying with 18m wings, so his score won't count in the 15m class nor will he appear in the 18m class - but he will be showing in the 15+18m combined ( no prizes) class. 

There are a few pilots missing due to ill health (nothing catching I hope) and one unflyable glider.

Deep joy! More fun to be had (but PEV won't be included for the actiual scoring process).

pre-comp setup.

Turnpoints and Airspace are from last year's Nationals and will likely be changed before the competition begins, but will give you something to play with until they are finalised. If you (competitors) want to be helpful, please check occasionally that your personal and aircraft details are correct. The Scorer (me) would appreciate a representative recent igc file from each flight recorder that you will be using during the competion, send it to igcscorer@outlook.com , DO NOT think it is helpful t...
