2006 Dust Devil Dash Results?
Are the results from the 2006 Dust Devil Dash posted?
We had a club member who flew in it this year and I wondered how he did. I think it's a great concept and plan to fly in it next year. FC Norton HpH304CZ-#17 ("FCZ") N304BL |

fcnorton wrote: Are the results from the 2006 Dust Devil Dash posted? The landing cards come back via US Mail, so it takes a few days to compile official results. About 5 flghts are on the OLC. Looks like Kevin Wayt won on handicap distance? Both he and TP landed at Mc Dermitt, Oregon. Marty Eiler made Battle Mountain, Nevada. Meanwhile Gary Ittner did Mount Whitney O/R (no points in the Dash!), and Tom Riley made Bishop. Others TBA. Jim |

2006 Dust Devil Dash Results?
And the flights on that day from Kelly Airpark in Colorado are for the Black Forest Soaring Society "Downhill Dash". Any flight with an easterly heading is, by definition, downhill from out 7040' MSL field elevation. We started out with cloudbase just a bit above 10K - this after the fog and low scud dried up - and continued on with bases getting even lower out to the SE. I made it 10 miles short of Liberal, KS, then spared myself a landing in a plowed filed by firing up the trusty Wankel and motoring up to Ulysses to join Dave Leonard for dinner Unfortunately, the sky blew up shortly after clearing at Kelly and about half the field never got away. -Tom |
