Ocana and other stories

Today is day 3 of the British Overseas Nationals in Ocana, Spain. It must surely rate as one of the nicests contest to fly in - http://www.soaringclub.com/senasa_scoring.html Gary Stingemore in a 29E is leading, but in 4th place in a 19 is Rose Johnson, with hubby Iain in a LS4 in 6th place (all of them have lots of frequent flyer airmiles to New Tempe, South Africa)

On day 4 is the Austrian Gliding Grand Prix -http://gliding-grandprix.lokf.at/ there Heimo Demmerer took 1st place on day 1, and overall in the lead is Eduard Supersperger, Heimo second and Wolfgang Janowitsch in third The results are at http://www.soaringspot.com/ggp2009/results/ and there is live tracking (using Silent Wings) for those with time and bandwidth on their hands.

The summer in the north is definitely picking up speed ;-)
