8 mins !
had a fustrating day where very little flying took place, the 4 min circuit followed by a spot took a while to organise and therefore the organisors needed a little while to sort the competitors. Once underway the task was a challenge with the added twist of trying to land in the box as well as combining time. It was unerving to fly away from the field and keep going, you really needed to trust your timings and conviction and carry on before turning. Once turning on finals you could not deviate at all of your track so timing was critical. Scores are not out as yet but again the british team did well and by looking at Video evidence the initial signs are good. For now the weather is poor with a low cloud base the forcast for tomorrow is good and the opening ceromony takes place with air display followed by us doing our spots the first nav task will kick off on Sunday. I have taken a few photos of the build up of the task.
