- August 7, 2005 - Low-key OPEN class thermal duration contest.
Please click on the link to see the results. See Photo-Gallery
for pictures of the event.
A special thanks goes out to those who participated in the low-key OPEN
class thermal duration contest. According to the score sheets, the
last event held by the SCTS was back in Oct., 1997. The field of
flyers consisted of Joe Perrone, Sal Barbagallo, Gene Sellers, Bob Crane and
Kurt Zimmerman. It became quite clear that the entire field of flyers
can't hit the broad side of a barn when it comes to landing. The day
was overcast, very humid. Thermal activity was very light but there
was lift to be found. Surprisingly the club equipment held up and
worked flawlessly. There were no major mishaps as everyone had a good
time. At the end of the event there was an overwhelming response to
hold another event before the end of the flying season.
The round by round results can be found on the link to the left of this
page.

contest. The format is to be determined by event
coordinator. Event is open to ALL SCTS members and guests.
