ELSG: Day 1 Results

Post by c r v »

Everyone got in one clean run today (almost), with the exception of two pilots that got in a second run prior to calling it a day due to winds increasing NNE over the back.

Excellent day, though, with overall, clean, safe runs.

Sunday is Day 2, and we should be getting in some more runs, also!

Day 1 results are as follows:

Open Class:
Brian Horgan 1:26 (Mr. Horgan claims he missed turn point 2. Spectator also stated he may have clipped turn point 2 short, as well. Meet organizers will gather more information on Sunday.)
Henry Bittner 1:29
Eric Froehlich 1:36
Kenny Brown 1:37
Diev Hart 1:53
Wayne Michelson 1:56
Doug Doerfler 2:17
Robert Booth 2:18

King Post:
Mike Jefferson 1:51
Walter Whiteside 1:54
John Taylor 1:56
Terry Strahl 2:23
Brian Houston 2:40
Bob Shelton 2:44

Thank you to Mission Soaring for opening their doors to us at 7:00AM (and for supplying doughnuts), John Taylor for his awesome T-shirts and posters, Carm for bringing coffee and bagels, and Carm & Bob for throwing a BBQ afterward!

Sunday is Day 2…Pilots will meet in the LZ at 8:00AM, then head up to the top for some more speedgliding!

Remember, it is your best two runs that count, so Day 2 could change the ballgame considerably…
