51st Australian Multiclass Nationals

Benalla, Australia,   January 7, 2013 – January 18, 2013

Day 7

Day 7 heralded the beginning of better weather; still blue but promising 7000' climbs, and with an early start and a late finish. Even coverage of lift across the task area prompted the task-setting committee to start to explore more of the south-western region of the task area. The Open and 18m classes were sent on a 380km fixed task and the 15m and Standard classes a 300km task.

The Task Setter felt that the task was under-set for the day and he proved to be right, as nobody outlanded. Lots of time pre-start due to the short task and big gaggles saw close finishes today, with less than 1 km/h separating the top three places in Standard class.
