North East Update


Free Flight Friends,

  Attached here for your possible interest are the results of the Wilbur and Orville National Cup meet June 13/14, 2009 and the Skyscraper Annual America's Cup and National Cup meet June 27/28, 2010, both held at Barron Field in Wawayanda, New York.

  Highlights of the W&O include the win by new junior flier Brede Doerner in F1B over Tom Vaccaro and Carrol Allen; the near perfect flying by Brian Pacelli in F1P and F1J; the first and second by Timothy Barron and Michelle Barron in F1A; the win by Miles Johnson in Hand Launch Glider; and the win by Al Vollmer over nine competitors in Catapult Glider.  [Watch for Brede, Brian, Timothy, Michelle, and Miles at the Junior Team Finals and National Champs at Muncie this weekend.]

  Highlights of the Skyscraper Annual include maxes on four out of five flights in F1H by six year old Gina Barron, along with Jean Pailet and winner Miles Johnson;  perfect flying by Jean in F1J; a near max-out and win by John Clapp in F1G; the win by Aram Schlosberg by two seconds in F1B;  the Peter, Timothy, and Andrew Barron sweep in F1A, the final order of which went down to outcomes in a turbulent final round of an otherwise calm day;  the flyoff battle between Vic Nippert and Bill Buss in P-30; and the continued dominance in HLG by Miles Johnson.

  See the attached score sheets to probe further.

  Thanks go to Lisa Pacelli for excellent score keeping, and the steady leadership by W&O CD Art Ellis and Skyscraper CD Dave Acton.

  I wish many thermals at the National Championship for all who are participating!

Andrew

From the Edge of Beyond to Krbavsko polje
 


Nurse SCAT,

I read from Ken Bauer that "we heard from Mike Woodhouse that the British team were being harrassed with text messages during the competition from fellow Brits, or maybe one notable Scottish gentleman as some of the less than perfect scores were posted."

I can confirm that this is true ! Gordon Brown, our notable Scottish Prime Minister, has the ear of Mike and takes a keen interest in all things FF. Accordingly I understand he kept up to speed with events via text messaging.

Well done to 'M' on his achievment. I saw the '91 Champs F/O when he was sent to cover Jim Parker and missed the better air that 'K' subsequently got; in different circumstances he would have been World Champ then.
