DP:is well DP,
He's had a couple of real 'get away' flights but yesterday he really showed
why he is a world champion on a consistent basis.
First conditions WERE that difficult proof being one of his landings that
should have been a walk in, and his plane just got pushed down onto the ground
short of the tape.
But he had a couple of rounds where a good part of the time was spent at
less than 132.8 ' where he managed air so well that he managed to surf forward
at near zero ground speed, never losing a 9" but always gaining 9.5"+ with the
waves of small lift that rolled across the field down low.
Josh is flying well, Mike Lachowski has been the usual artist of air we
come to see at every contest.
All top ten guys have taken a heavy hit yesterday. Some of the often
under the top 10 guys are having the Nats of their lives.
One of the downers was that Carl lost his Icon Man ship to a power failure
of some kind. Destroyed. :-( A plane he had finally bonded with and was
leading with yesterday.
Rich Burnowski is quietly putting his plane up so high you can barely see
it. Jeff Stiefel had a flight like that after having to find his
plane way off in the bean fields, George Joy hooked one to a high so high it
gave you a headache trying to focus.
Nuther one ahead.
Gordy
