Title: NIMSA open and electric 2011
Post by: andrew wallace on July 03, 2011, 19:10:49 PM
another great day at mallusk :D
we had the introduction of a spot landing today and it made some difference to the flying  :)
again it was one of those days where one or two people got away and the rest struggled

only disaster of the day was Ronnie  :cry: while him and Frank where flying the same slot Ronnie was flying Franks model while his own hit the ground  :cry: and Bill had a wee bit of a problem with his motor not turning off on his semi scale discus but damage was slight  :)  

once again well done sam on winning the thermal  :clap:

i managed to beat him in the electric comp  :D  :D

roll on the 31st july to the area open
