November 2009 DARTS Club Contest
Sunday November 15, 2009
DARTS Field, Fairborn, Ohio


Everyone,

Sixteen glider pilots enjoyed light winds, 60 degree temperatures, and light lift at today's club contest.  Five rounds with tasks of 6,8,10,12, and 12 minutes were flown with approximately 50% of the flights attaining the maximum flight. Mark Gellart and Ron Mong each made the time every round, however Mark gathered 36 more landing points for the win.  Alex Trussell continued his sailplane education and did a great job with the family Oly 2.  Newcomer Roger Parrett began learning winch technique.  As the last round ended and the sun started setting pilots lamented on the wonderful weather and the end of this year's contest flying.  Thanks to the out of town pilots who joined us today
