2019 Competition Results
Cross country 2 June 2019
This was a challenging course set by Allen. Eight members entered. Five flags were set up from the reservoir almost to the top of Windover Hill plus a slopeside spot landing.
John Phillips 70 points,
Mark Heffer 68 points
John Stuckle 62 points.
Peter Burgess 60 points
Peter Newman 60 points
Allen Elliott 48 points
Mark Cornwall 34 points
Ray Wells 32 points
The course and the conditions resulted in generally a low number of turns behind the flags. Several competitors went too far back and landed without intention. John S and Ray had a mid air, no damage, and an appeal was made for bonus points for entertainment value but the appeal was turned down.
Thanks to Allen for a good but demanding morning out.

Another challenging competition due to light conditions, flown on the North bowl at Butts brow
We give special thanks to John Stuckle flying a two channel floater, Mick Robinson flying a Middle Phase and Mark Heffer flying the Wildthing. Without these committed club members there would not have been enough competitors to run a comp.

Great conditions 15-20 mph on the west slope at Longman with clear skies, unfortunately due to the forecast only turning around Saturday night, we had a very poor turn out of 3!! As we were running out of time this year we decided to run the competition. Pete Burgess flew his Aresti with considerable skill taking a well deserved 1st
