We completed an FAI Triangle 1000km flight. Not only did we have a big
flight, we also enjoyed the western NSW countryside - Markus and
Michael.
29

flew 1180km OLC distance - Markus and Michael .
Detailed
flight data can be viewed on the OLC website.
18 and 19 December: Students
have been flying every day for up to six hours in good conditions to
10,000ft. One pilot declared a 50km task and flew 296km!
The NSW
State
Gliding Championships finished on December 2. Two pilots from Soar
Narromine competed - Itsuo Takahashi (flying our Discus 2) finished
11th, and Haruka Kise (in the Duo Discus) came 4th.Shinzo
commented that very difficult weather conditions prevailed all week,
but both these pilots did maximum flights.
October
2006:
The
2006-2007 soaring season is now upon us with bookings coming in daily.
Friday,
October 6:
Shinzo
headed off today for the long trek up to Kingaroy in Queensland
where he will take part in the Australian National Gliding
Championships. This event is being held from October 8 to 20. We wish
him safe and happy soaring.
Monday,
October 2:
Shinzo
carried out an advanced training flight in the Duo Discus, 300km out
and return, on task, at an average speed of 105kph and a cu base of
11,000ft. As you are probably aware, many parts of Australia,
including the Narromine area, are in a severe drought situation. If the
drought does not break we expect the coming season to have great
soaring conditions - but we feel very sorry for the farmers and
graziers.
June

Shinzo
represented Australia
in the 29th World Gliding Championships in Sweden.
Report attached.
