Nah, the Antares is a much better glider than the others here.
So even though I've gone furthest and fastest three days in
a row, its sadly true that the first four guys are just better
than me (I'm in fifth). I'll just have to go faster !

My mentor 711 told me to go to Havanna and ignore that
silly task sheet. I got about 40 miles south before deciding
maybe he was fooling with me, so I came back and flew the
task...http://www.onlinecontest.org/olc-2.0....html?flightId...

See ya, Dave "YO electric"

Yep, its true, I sent him to Havanna. BUT, when Dave landed today, he
was puffin on a big old cigar............and a grin from ear to
ear.....

3rd day news, TA, wins the day by one point over KS. Top 4 remain the
same. BUT, we are waiting for winscore updates before scores will
become offical. CD Good said we should have more tomorrow.

Todays task was a 3 turn TAT of 2 hrs 45 minutes. Big fires and smoke
around first turn. Those who went to the west side of the turn had 12
kts to 7 k, while the other group who went east, got ka slamed with 5
kts in the blue to 5 k. From the second to third turn, it was a test
to slow down and some had to settle for less just to get home.

Tonight we had a cattered BBQ dinner. Wednesday we rest.

Thermal tight, Saor high, Fly safe. #711 reporting.

SSA website seems to be "caught up" with some excellent commentary.
Thanks guys. Looks fun!
