CLOUD TRAMP POSTAL CONTEST 2011
Once again I thank you all for your support and participation ... as usual we have some new names on the list, some past ones missing ... but 23 entries. A couple less than 2010 ....but it would be good to have a greater input from the 172 who participated in the MIMLOCT (for which reports and photos may be viewed on the Cloud Tramp website) so please try to encourage others whom you fly with to join us in 2012. I am somewhat embarrassed that I did not register scores; it was my intention to fly in the similar CT event at the ‘Great Grape Gathering’ contest but was well across the border into New York when I remembered that the model was still hanging on my workshop wall .... L
The 2012 event, of course, will commence on the same date as the MIMLOCT - Saturday August 4th – and close on September 30th. Same rules: Five flights, longest and shortest discounted. I will remember my model .........
I have posted the undernoted entries and scores to the CT event within the 20th WorldWide Postal, which closes June 30th, 2012. However, as you did not specifically enter the WWP as such, should you feel that you could better the scores posted here then please feel free to fly your CT’s again before that date, and I’ll happily substitute and update the results in that contest.
I hope to welcome each one of you back again – and, as said, do try to talk someone else into building and flying a Cloud Tramp (or even into flying yours - no BOM rule, remember). If you forwarded scores on behalf of those without email addresses, please ensure they receive a copy of this report.
The main thing about this ‘contest’ is that everyone has fun. There’s no better motive or incentive. Let’s do it again?
Thank you again – one and all –may I wish you good flying in 2012, no matter what your F/F or other interests might be.
