Canungra day 7

October 9th, 2009

Same old, same old…

Beechmont > Boonah T > Boonah Airstrip > Lake Moogera

Really quickly, the main points of interest…

Rough day with really choppy climbs and an especially wild ride through the wind sheer at 3600-4000ft

I managed to get real low at Mt Mohammed. things weren’t looking good as I was down to 960ft asl. I managed to climb out and had a fairly easy run to goal after that. The 40mins it took to get out of that hole meant that I was quite slow around the course.

Barnsie, and Dave scorched around the course and should now be in the top 18 in the overall scores.

Jonny did not make goal. This will mean that either Ricky or Rohan will now be leading the comp. Quite a coop for AirBorne. Great flying guys!

Tomorrow looks like being great weather and I’m sure we would be heading ove the range if it wasn’t the last day. I assume it will be a BBQ task finishing at the model feild or somewhere similarly close by.

    Hi Trent,
    thanks for your reports and photos, finally someone who regularly reports on the comp! It is so hard for me not to be there, I so wish I could have come and flown with you. Hopefully next year at Bogong and Canungra!
    All the best,
    Corinna.
