Thanks to Norm Fortin - IN - who sniffed for a few hours in his lovely Discus 2, followed by Wolfgang in the new (to us) ASW20. Thanks for exploring the skies for us.
Task B is called, two hours. First launch, 1352; last at 1424. 32 minute launch, due to great work on behalf of the hard-working tow pilots and long-suffering line crew!
We have 3 towplanes - the MSC L-19 (213 hp), the GGC Citabria (160 hp), and GGC Pawnee (235 hp). The pilots kept nice spacing, despite the disparate performance.
FAI handicapped gate opened at 1427. Club handicapped gate opened at 1441. Thanks to Christine, the voice of the Nats.
There has been one relight, and one land-out at a near-by airport - an airtow retrieve.
The tracker is up and running.
First competitor has turned the first turnpoint and has been as high as 4,200'AGL.
