Everyone is accounted for after a number of pilots visited the rural sector and were amazed at the friendliness of the locals.
Two pilots helped us check our SAR procedures by being more than 2 hours "out of touch". Thanks to SAR for arranging a radio relay from a passing commercial flight.
Terry Delore flew in in the ASH with Vaughan Ruddick as co pilot. Terry says I need to be more descriptive in this blog and I can quote him in saying the 2 knot thermals were great!!!
Check the scores after 9:30 pm on soaringspot. Seems that it will be a 1000 point day and Team South Island might be puffing out their chests and picking up some goodies tomorrow at briefing. Seven and a half percent of the fleet completed the task!! But a lot of happy pilots...... because they would rather fly than fish!!
Another good looking day for tomorrow..
Keep it up ( I am off to bed-I am knackered!!!)
