47th Australian Multiclass Nationals

Benalla, Australia,   12 January 2009 – 23 January 2009

7.30pm day 4 Sat 17 Jan 09

Last on the grid, 18m was altered to the Standard class task, a shorter racing task, because the day started low at Benalla.

 

Out on track it steadily improved to the north with some thermals 7 - 8 knots to 7,000\' AGL.  The day slowly deteriorated towards the south and the Mildura River, but then improved slightly on the way home to Benalla.  "It was a better day for golf than gliding."  5 outlandings so far.
