F3K #1 - Longwood Results and Report

F3K #1 - Longwood Results and Report

The first F3K comp of the year was flown in some of the nicest (but trickiest) weather we have had at Longwood in a long time. There seemed to be plenty of thermals, but they were very broken and tended to disappear as quickly as they formed. Jon Day lead from start to finish flying his well sorted Stream NXT and seemed to have his thermals on a string. Hugh Blackburn flew well to finish second and Dave Milward continues to improve and finished third. Marcus was a little rusty and landed out too many times to finish fourth and Tim Lennon was like the prodigal son making a comeback after a long hiatus and finished fifth.
