Women's Worlds

Lucky that the other competitor got a zero on the first day. To come back from a zero to 10th, and close enough a first day score of less than 850 would have seen the French girl win.

Woohoo Team USA!

Congratulations Sarah!

All the best,
Daniel

Sarah had her hands full with those two French pilots. They had practiced a lot together, they flew welded wing and their team coach was world champion Eric Napoleon.

Sarah was the best individual pilot.

Hip Hip Hooray!!!!

Congrats Sarah!

You worked hard for this and earned it! You single-handedly beat the best teams in the world. That's an extra impressive achievement.

There's an F-18 flyby scheduled in a few minutes.
Sarah is truly an individual pilot. We are all really proud of her.
Jason dumped a bucket of water on Sarah as soon as the day was cancelled.
We all got wet from congratulatory hugs.
And my pal Kel (owner of XBY) has received loads of grief about flying slow. (evidently the glider is no longer an excuse)
Well done Sarah!

SHE SCOOOORRRRREES! Sarah Arnold clobbered the field on the first day at the Women's Worlds in Australia.

Congratulations Sarah! And to the rest of the team as well--good Show! Hard to beat a team-flying team with a great coach! But, you did it!
