Midland Gliding Club Task Week 2021

Welshpool, Vereinigtes Königreich,   21. August 2021 – 29. August 2021

DAY 5 - A pattern is becoming clear

After presenting all available evidence to support the possibility of setting a task, and elaborating at some length on how to respect control points and airspace on the one that had been set, Dominic surprised no one by summarily scrubbing the day.

There followed an ad hoc presentation of the process used to set Task Week tasks, including the calcualtion of barrel size and the use of SeeYou Competition to post them. A surprisingly energetic discussion followed about the true nature of the checkpoint; its preferred use, optimal location and whether it disssapears up its own thistle as the limit of its circumference approaches zero. Some practical approaches to flying tasks, many learned from trial, error and ield landing, were offered by way of encouragement to those less well versed in the arcane art.

No mention of tomorrow's weather was made or permitted.
