Catching Up

It's 6 am on Friday and the first chance I've had to catch up with my blog. It seems that whenever I wasn't running around the wi-fi was down. Enough excuses, I'll make up for it before everyone gets up for breakfast.

Having lost Sunday's spot landings from the programme because of the weather there was pressure to get things weaving. On Monday a navigation task was run, rather short and rather late, but the last minute addition of hidden gates spiced it up a bit. Chris and Claire Wills in their very tidy Escapade scored maximum points in the dual 3-axis class on this, a great start to their competition. Richard Rawes in his Chaser maxed in the solo flexwing class while Rob Grimwood and Chris Saysell did the same in their GT450 in the dual flexwing class. The solo 3-axis class having been declared invalid because only 3 nations were represented, this gave us a first place in each of the valid classes, very positive stuff. The task was followed by a spot landing under power.
