"Come Fly With Me" Sunday 4th July
JohnPearson:
Still on the hunt for a good fast glider, count us in if you want to start some racing. The slopes on moneymore mountain would be perfect for racing. I like the idea of flying around the country at different slope sites also. go for it guys lets get some flying in !!
Richard Boyd:
Hi guyes sounds like a great idea to have a wee race or two to add to the slope fun we are having. I hope it will be open to all classes of planes and will be fun rather than too serious.
I have flown quite abit on the North Coast and there are quite a few sites, ballerina being the best site I have flown, but one problem is the Ulster gliding club use these ridges during the weekends, a short hoop in the ferry takes you to Greencastle and County Donegal were you have Mallin Head also a great site, back to the North Coast and there is White Park Bay , a massive bowl that has superb clean air rolling in from the Atlantic.
Wish I was their today !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

billscottni:
Agree with you Richard. The first few races at least should be open to ANYTHING.
Wings, ARF's Stargazers. Spirts, Vectors. You name it Fly it! We're only trying to better our own flying and times :clap:
JohnPearson:
Yes Bill, open to all flyers, only rules apply everyone must have fun, fun, fun.
We have been looking for good slope sites all year, and we have found some fantastic slopes in the North along with some fine whiskey to warm the heart on a cold day.
P.S.
Richard the sun is shining in Armagh I could sell you a wet suit cheap!!!!
Happy Days:
I’ve never tried racing. :?: Certainly wouldn’t mind giving it a go!
Not being a very competitive sort of person, I’m with Bill in trying to better our own times rather than competing against others.
As for travelling around the country to different venues,………. don’t mind if I can get there and back in a day. (I’m not into overnight stays. :roll: )
