Central Plateau Soaring Competition 2019

Taupo, New Zealand,   3 November 2019 – 10 November 2019

Day 4

Some days are just not contest days, and today is one of those. Again.

I thought Skysight had gone to black and white.

A brave few had a fly around the area yesterday....... it's been a while since Taupo Airport had a visit from a glider, but it was a good reminder that there are other aircraft types around, and they were very helpful! The Pawnee enjoyed the sealed runway for the retrieve!

Looking forward to Bill and Mary's roast dinner tonight and a better day tomorrow.
