Day 4

Hello everyone, It's a beautiful blue sky with some high cover this morning, and the results now are rather different from last night!  A special mention should go out to Robert Starling, who not only took the most time of any pilot for the scoring team, but missed the start sector by 184m.  Had he not been penalized, he would have come in 3rd place, which in his ASW 15 is a major achievement.  Well done also to Jack, for his first win of the week, and to Alex Maitland, for buying me a drink in...

Flying updates

We\'ve quite a few finishers now. JVA, JVE, 400, DS2, 172, Si, CZR, 62, and FBN are all home having completed the task.  I\'m scoring wildly as we speak, and hope to have preliminary results up soon. :)

Landout

Well, there\'s certainly a landout, and given that they\'re asking for crew I\'m guessing it\'s Alex Maitland.  Catterick, apparently.
