47th Australian Multiclass Nationals

Benalla Gld, Australien,   12. Januar 2009 – 23. Januar 2009

3.15pm day 2 Wed 14 Jan 09

6 club gliders launched at 10.30am to capitalise on the 36 degree trigger temperature, but there was unanticipated inversion over the top.  Feeble lift was contacted 7 km to the north of the field but conditions slackened towards the Warby range.

 

Non-competition pilots, English visitor Bob Nichols in his Ventus 2 scraped northwards whilst Michael Sommer in a Nimbus 3 and Graham Garlick (competition weatherman) in an ASW20 polished the Chesney rocks.  Graham Garlick succumbed to a smallish paddock to watch Michael Sommer scrape away in feeble lift.  Bob Nichols and Michael Sommer are aiming for a thousand.

 

In trying 40 degree heat, there was a change of runway as the wind had moved from north-easterly to a westerly, and launch commenced around 2.30pm. 

 

The AAT was brought back to 2.5 hours with a change to the first circle for Standard - 30 km to 50 km:  Boree Creek 169.2 km (30 / 50); Deniliquin 159.3 km (70); Glenrowan 152.5 km (15) - 319.0 km / 709.8 km (502.1 km) - Standard 282 / 745 (502.1).

 At 3pm, 18m competitor Hank Kauffmann reported 7 kts climb to a cooler altitude. The heat on the ground prevails; the Wagga Wagga trace predicts 12,000 \' in the direction of the task.
