What a great weekend of soaring in Muncie! Saturday's contest started
at 10:00 a.m. and we finished up just a few minutes before 6:00 p.m. We
flew 7 rounds, first round a warm up of 10 minutes (in launch and hang
in very light stuff), then 6 rounds of 13 minutes. It was tough early,
fairly easy midday, and tough from 4:30 on, (ask the top 2 groups which
were really shuffled about, except for the top 2).
Rich Burnowski came out on top with 7492 points. Paul Sherman second
with 7462 points. Bill Wingstedt was third, followed by Ron Kukral and
Jack Strothers. Top Sportsman was Ron Allen who finished 11th overall.
We had one flyer complete their 15 minute LSF II task flight. We in
LOFT allow flyers going for LSF tasks to declare and then set a new
target task for them (in this case 16 minutes) and normalize off that
time. Everyone cheered when Lee touched down 1 second off, and with a
level 2 landing.
28 flyers in 4 flight groups kept the day busy. Thanks to all the
midwest guys for supporting OVSS. A more fun group to fly with you
won't find anywhere!
Complete results from both days will be on the website later this week.
