Thanks Bill for running another fantastic competition.
First time I won a round at thermaling !
First time I also crash landed lol
Andrew sent me the plans off the eliminator so I can make a new Fus once I get the bench cleared of other projects.

The event after that is 100S, but if I get you & Tommy to bring your Open models we can run the fly off  :D  :)
