Midland Gliding Club Task Week 2021

Welshpool, United Kingdom,   21 August 2021 – 29 August 2021

Day 7 More groundhogs

With the general forecast giving persistent cloud cover, RASP showing a day that was weaker, lower and shorter than yesterday, which itself was challenging, and a better day in prospect for tomorrow, Day 7 was scrubbed at briefing.

Competitors who had scored yesterday talked others, who had not, through 'how they did it' in detail, while commenting on their traces displayed by SeeYou on the briefing room laser display screen. When subsequently maggot raced, the five traces showed remarkably consistent tactics over much of the task distances flown.

Tomorrow is another day.
