Andy_B Posted October 6, 2020 Author Share Posted October 6, 2020 The W word is looking good so far for the weekend . As per the previous events this year so far we will have plenty of hand sanitisers about and please use them as often as possible and much as we would like to see everyone on the day if you do have any symptoms of CV19 please stay home. The call will be made Friday evening for the event confirmation. Andy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

isoaritfirst Posted October 10, 2020 Share Posted October 10, 2020 I fly my Jazz very rarely, but it did feel good all morning, I let it down in the afternoon. Poor air but worse piloting made for a miserable afternoon. But despite that it’s great to get a comp in, congrats William you flew very well, a well deserved podium place. Thanks to everyone for turning up and keeping the day rolling along nicely. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy_B Posted October 10, 2020 Author Share Posted October 10, 2020 Thanks to all those that turned up today , the rain stayed off for longer than we thought and the wind didnt really go properly NorthWest till later in the afternoon and in that direction its never going to be very smooth or an easy ride on Polecott.Some great entertainment at times Paul doing a touch and go on leg 10 Dave trying to spin into Base B at one point and Les having got so excited in the best air he had all day managed to get himself in all sorts of trouble at Base B.The rain showers eventually got more frequent and the direction was against us and even after 20 minutes of sports flying to see if it settled we called it a day at about 3:20 . Never the less it was good to get the first comp of the winter league in , lets hope its a sign of things to come .Round winning times attached Andy/Les 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
