2019 Area E-Soaring 25/8/19

Yet another event rescheduled due to the weather. Six flyers turned out, Chairman Bill Scott was unavailable for health reasons, but Ronnie Armstrong flew his first event in a while (good to see him back)

Conditions were excellent, with a clear blue sky and a light easterly. Lift started off being elusive (unlike the sink!), but as the day went on became more abundant and many good scores were recorded. Five rounds flown allowed a discard, with Andrew finishing in top spot, with Keith not too far behind. This out the two of them in to the two round fly off. Unfortunately Keith found sink in Rd 1 and never recovered, leaving Andrew the Area E-Soaring Champion 2019, (ironically with a model Keith sold him!!)
