Competition day today at Reconco Onil. Task was set Onil - Almansa, which is a 50 km flight. Most of us in the air before the comp started. Nice.

Then lots of pilots ready as you can see on the foto, to get the cup !

Who won ? Good old Dudo, who flies with us daily. He is a very good pilot under a safe DHV2 glider. Maybe missing other comps because of his glider speed, but strategically on of our better pilots, nothing opportunistic about him. Rafa our other dude, got all his gear stolen, yes his brandnew Niviuk Icepeak XP got stolen yesterday with all the rest of his gear like harnass, XC traineretc... , so had to compete with some lousy MacMagnus glider or something. Of course his spirits were low, and preferred to keep the honour to himself and abandon the race toplanding and leave the results to others.
Anyway, not of too much importance for us. We had a great day, at Onil and then later on at Palomaret, where everybody had his last flight before heading back home to England.
Guys it was a pleasure to have had you around, I honestly hope all was fine, and truly hope to see you all back again later. Take care.
Pierre and Jacques and Benedicte, keep in touch, get ready to fly big time down in Alicante next time. Let us have your foto's !
