Just catching up on the Club Flying Comp Round 6 stuff. Another great session was flown on Sunday 27th July 2025 at Melton Airfield for our Club Flying competition. The task was called "Boomerang" with the aim of taking off and landing as quickly as possible. 16 Flyers took part, flying in variable conditions a bit dull and overcast. Your club PRO was fortunate to have a lull in the wind for my turn!The scores for Club Members and Non-Club members are shown below:Club MembersTrevor Main 39Dave Matthews 25Roy Ridealgh 20Derek Ridealgh 18Stuart Sirrell 16Dave Peet 13Alan Boswell 11Michael Campbell 10Bill Veitch 9Club Members Cumulative ScoreRoy Ridealgh 246Phil Curtis 156Derek Ridealgh 132Dave Matthews 121Trevor Main 120Stuart Sirrell 89Michael Campbell 86Dave Peet 77Richard Phillips 59Alan Robinson 55Tim Coppin 50Bill Veitch 46Alan Boswell 44Chris Jones 1David Mees 1Non-Club MembersSimon Illsley 60Graham Illsley 48Lewis Langwade 30Owen Seagrave 16Steve Foxon 13Geoff Curtis 5Michael Seagrave 5Non-Club Members Cumulative ScoresLewis Langwade 220Simon Illsley 199Owen Seagrave 122Andy Shaw 111Graham Illsley 94Geoff Curtis 56Steve Foxon 13Michael Seagrave 10 ...
