Flying in the USA 18m

The JS1 placed second on the first day of the USA 18m contest being held at Mifflin.
Herewith a posting from Rand Baldwin

Flying in moderate conditions over a 232 mile assigned speed task, Al Tyler of Perry, SC (ASG-29), and Huntsville's Bill Elliott managed a 1-2 placing, finishing only seconds apart with 6 points separating the two pilots.
Bill said that he was able to outclimb everyone in the South African JS1 Revelation, including the open class ships, and was beating the opens in the run!

Twenty-five registered contestants and four guests are competing.

The scores are posted at
