I remember the first day of traces when the pilots ran out to Six Mile Bottom then Hus Bos (furthest point). The traces showed some flying 1500ft above cloudbase. In particular I recall John Giddens flying the ASW-22 north about to the Wash for 2 hours before landing at Hus Bos, mostly in cloud. Then there was Graham Skelly's 'maggot racing' program;^). Good times. Frank Whiteley Maggots were good. The room I had at Enstone would be packed with people watching what others had done. They'd come back later to look at the maggots for those who landed out - usually with chuckles of joy... Poland was fun, as the overseas was the first BGA comp to allow loggers. It was a steep learning curve, as I was scoring, checking photos and doing the loggers. Dave |
