Barkston - Midland Area Festival of Flight Event - June 11th 2006

Fantastic weather greeted us all at Barkston (for a change) - 25 degrees with light winds that did not impede racing at any time during the day

Fastest time during the day was a 3:26 from Ross/Yeldham flying Gordons new retract model - looking very clean in the air and rotating just inside 18 secs for 10.

A couple of smashes marred the day with Bainbridge/Orchard losing site of the model in round two and Langworth/Broadhead having a line break when cutting in round three - both write-offs

Thanks to Dave Rudd for acting CD for the day and providing prizes
