Question: Does anybody have an idea as to the max distance a
K13/Blanik has flown in Australia?
I seem to recall that a Blanik once held a World Record with a
distance flight of over 800 k.

No, I don't know what the longest is, but in 1989 Port Augusta Gliding
Club won the two seater decentralised competition with two 300s and a
500 in a Blanik.
If my memory serves me correctly the second place getter was a certain
large club who flew long flights in a high performance glider (possible
ASH25 but my memory is hazy) including one 1000km. But we beat them on
handicap.
