Six or seven records fell, depending on when Jim Richmond's EZB
landed while I was packing up.
HLG
Rob Romash 1:54.0 two flight total at 10:30 AM
Jim Buxton 1:55.6 two flight total at 11:31 AM
The existing record was 1:41.5!
This was quite a battle, Rob is probably to tough to admit it but I
am in a fair amount of pain still. Rob and I each put up identical
flight times, and were improving each other's times all morning.
Rob's best two flights were a pair of 57.0's, my best two a pair of
57.8's. The most intense day of HLG I have been involved in in 20
years. When you throw a pair of identical times as your best, it is
a pretty good indication that you are getting everything you can out
of a glider, and it rarely happens. To see it happen to two fliers
on the same day is really rare. To see two fliers so far over the
existing record, and so close to each other in time, once in a
lifetime perhaps.
All other glider records held. Kurt Krempetz again won both catapult
events, but was not able to boost the records this year. Rob was
Second in Unlimited, I was second in Standard. Bill Gowen was third
in both I believe.
F1D
John Kagan put up a flight around 29 minutes to take the record.
Ministick
Rob Romash upped the record from 11:00 to 11:04.
Nick Ray grabbed the SR. M-S record with a nice flight, good job Nick!
LPP Jim Richmond put up a 12:34 I am pretty sure to get the record.
EZB, Richmond launched at 7:57, when did it land?
