Hi Brett,
Hope you got back OK.
4 of us brits flew the hall in 2005 and the drift was manageable -
more turbulent near the barrel vaulted ceiling. I understand that now
all the windows are blacked out, it may be better. The same contest
this year was held in rounds in the afternoon/evening when the air
was more stable. I hope there'll be a short report in the next INAV.
Nick.

all the way to the 33' ceiling and it tends to drift toward one wall.
How is the drift in this hall?
