Oh NO! Now we have others telling us how Gordy did! Gv :) -----Original Message----- From: Klaus Weiss [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Sunday, February 27, 2005 1:32 AM To: Soaring@airage.com Subject: [RCSE] Gordy downunder.
Gordy has just finished flying this round of the Heathcote Cup Open Thermal comp. He has his contest requirements for LSF level 3, and is a happy camper. He flew very well, managing 3 x 1,000 pts (1st place in the round) and a 947 in another round. He was disappointed in the Aus T.D. rules, where it states if you lose part of your glider on launch, then it is a zero score for that round - he lost a canopy..... ooops. Came in 7th overall and would have done much better if not for the zero score. He flew at Carl Strautins club field yesterday, and commented that he saw a deer 'pad' on the edge of the field. He then saw a couple of 'deer' laying down. They got up and turned into what he thought were people. They hopped away, and Gordy saw his first kangaroos in the wild. Good time had with him, as last year. He is a good guy and a friend to us down here.
