News from the first contest of the 1997 season.......Gliders over
Dunstable Downs.
BRITISH AEROBATIC ASSOCIATION - CONTEST RESULT (Gliders)
Two Contests so far....... While the Glider fraternity
organised outstanding weather,
and a 'wicked wind', to introduce the inaugural contest of the
year.........they proved to be
deviously fiendish at predicting a wet and cloudy day for the
following week at Leicester.
For at the Icicle & Surprise Trophy not one of them was to be seen,
save the
presence of Stefan 'with or without engine' Kwiecien who, after
perfecting his Pitts
'High Glide into ploughed fields' figure over the winter, tried his
hand at real 'un-powered '
aircraft , and found himself, flushed with sucess as a 5-hour K-21
driver and proud
custodian of the DAN SMITH TROPHY, ready to do battle with the noisy
dogs ! .
At least this time he had an engine, although it couldnt blow away
those low clouds and
drizzle which saw less than one third compete in the first power
contest of the year .
But if you want to know more.......join us, and see the bi-monthly
