Yes, Nick – you were too subtle for me.   Sorry for getting the impression that you were trying to have a go at me.   With kind regards   Bernard   -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Nick Gilbert Sent: Thursday, 24 February 2005 4:10 PM To: Discussion of issues relating to Soaring in Australia.

The new ASW 28-18E, for example, finished almost 10% ahead, despite of the fact that it was flown by a relatively unexperienced competition pilot who flew the aircraft for the very first time. To put these results into context, the new ASW 28-18E is an unflapped glider but it still beat a fleet of predominantly flapped gliders including a number of Ventus 2cx.   No wonder people are already queuing for the ASG 29.   For further information visit:   http://www.alexander-schleicher.de/englisch/e_main.htm     Bernard     -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Nick Gilbert Sent: Thursday, 24 February 2005 1:54 PM To: Discussion of issues relating to Soaring in Australia.

Are you forgetting Club Class where schleicher gliders came last & second last?   Nick. ----- Original Message ----- From: B & C Eckey To: aus-soaring@lists.internode.on.net Sent: Thursday, February 24, 2005 8:30 AM Subject: [Aus-soaring] NSW State Comps   Hi all   It has only just come to my attention that Schleicher pilots won three out of four titles at the recent NSW State comps at Temora.   18m Class – ASW 28-18E (Malcom Bruce) 15m Class – ASW 27 (Graham Parker) Open Class – ASH 25 (Paul Mander) with Malcom Bruce in ASW 28-18E in second place.   On top of that, Graham Parker was awarded the trophy for the fastest flight of the competition. I believe he did a speed of 145kph on one day.   Congratulations to all of you.   With kind regards Bernard & Christel Eckey 10 Antigua Grove West Lakes 5021 Adelaide / South Australia Ph. +61 8 8449 2871 Fax +61 8 8242 3698 mobile 0412 981204 [EMAIL PROTECTED] www.gliders.net.au     _______________________________________________ Aus-soaring mailing list Aus-soaring@lists.internode.on.net To check or change subscription details, visit: http://lists.internode.on.net/mailman/listinfo/aus-soaring _______________________________________________ Aus-soaring mailing list Aus-soaring@lists.internode.on.net To check or change subscription details, visit: http://lists.internode.on.net/mailman/listinfo/aus-soaring
