Days 6 and 7

If you want to know what’s happening I suggest you have a look at the weather page.

No flying yesterday or today.

A number of competitors have left for home early.

It’s a little difficult to know how many remain, but I think its less than 30.

There wasn’t a lot of drying yesterday and some showers this morning didn’t help.

But some strong winds and the occasional bit of sunshine have done wonders this afternoon.

The forecast for Friday is for a wet day so we potentially have 3 days remaining which will be enough to give us a championship.

The paddocks around Dalby are very wet and the only realistic task is a run task from landable airfield to airfield.

For that to be achievable we need usable convection to an adequate height.

The forecast for tomorrow is for convection but with strong winds which may make it untaskable again.

The outlook for Wednesday is better.

Standard and 15m classes have had 3 contest days so they only need one more valid contest day to make it a championship.

The open and 18m classes need 2 days.

Its still possible.

We’ll see what tomorrow’s weather brings.
