Day 1

Those of you on the airfield today will note that the photo posted was cunningly angled to make the sky look better than it was! The competitors took being launched into the rain in good spirits. Most of them "stuck to the sky" but there were enough relights to give the crews some practice at ground retrieves. The wind was also challenging but the air gradually dried out until a shower late in the afternoon caused a mass landing.

The task was a "pinball" effort shuttling backwards and forwards across concentric rings.

3 landouts to date and everyone else is back on the airfield with the exception of Justin who we assume is on his way to the Norfolk coast somewhere.

Will update with the results in the morning.
