When I go to the events page for the comp, I can't see any link to be able to enter, or see any other entrants for that matter.

Is there something else set up for the entries?

 

[DDM]

I think someone's turned off the power ooop nourth 

[Andy_B]

yes you have to turn entries on when you set it up

So Mark didn't do that then.

They either want to run a comp or they don't?

Terrific day, dry, sunny and windy-ish.
Winds forecast from the NW turning W didn't quite materialise but never-the-less were very flyable.

Usuall Levisham variability gave everyone at least one good round.
Wind speeds ranged from 3 to 10m/s before finally collapsing around mid afternoon.

Great to see Cengiz making a return visit, and Alex making his debut at a Winter League.
9 rounds were easily achieve after a slow start by the seven pilots before the wind died completely.

After some very consistant flying, Peter came out on top, with Steve closing in on 2nd place and Mark not far behind in 3rd
FTD went to Peter with a 44.15 in R9

Thanks for everyones support and look forward to the December event on the 7th

Good news, well done. Glad it happened for you. 

[Peter G]

I really enjoyed yesterday. Light & crossed to start 3-5ms. Then a little more wind and not quite so crossed made it quite good at times.

Typical Levisham, variable as hell but I found some luck yesterday with the air.

Good to meet Alex and his Stinger, who did great at his first comp.

Round 2 of the Northern WL this weekend.

Forecasts are really mixed.
More as the situation develops, watch this space.

Hi All, just to cut to the chase, tomorrows WL is OFF!

Storm Darragh is due to hit tonight on the west coast and travel across country
during Saturday. High winds and rain will be a feature, particularly on the North York Moors

Like all these weather patterns timing is the key, but its likely to make its presence felt from first thing Saturday morning me thinks.

Regards
Jon

Round 1 has now been loaded to F3X Vault. 

I had to create a few pilots on the system with very basic data, not sure on the nationality of Cengiz as I have never met him, so if its wrong then please let me know and I can update it.
