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.

F3F  8th September

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.

Aerobatics  6th October

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 

1st Pete Burgess 183 points

2nd Allen Elliott 175 points

3rd Ray Wells 99 Points
