15.01.2022 Sailplane Grand Prix - Summary Day 2 Our second day of flying was once again a challenging day for all of our pilots. A similar task was set, which involved a trip for our pilots across to Jeparit, down to Marnoo before returning back to the Horsham Aerodrome. See below for the map of the day. The eventual winner was Peter Temple, whose strategy allowed him a narrow victory over Sean Fidler. Todays task resulted in 4 sailplanes having to out-land.

09.01.2022 Sailplane Grand Prix Australia - Summary Day 3 Today was a day of refinement for all of our pilots, with Day Three providing our pilots with a fantastic opportunity to take to the sky on a high speed race across the Wimmera skies. Todays task took our sailplanes North to Nhill, East to Birchip before returning home safely the better conditions resulting in no outlandings today.... First home was Mark Tingey in a a JS-1 with a scoring time of 2:24:35 and average speed of 124.0 km/h. Mark. David Pietsch and Geoff Brown finished second and third.
07.01.2022 Sailplane Grand Prix Australia - Summary Day 5 Following the cancellation of Day four due to poor weather, Day five was a fantastic day for gliding in the Wimmera. Today’s task was set nice and close to the town, to allow our pilots the chance to explore some different areas around the aerodrome. Today our pilots embarked to the East to Minyip, before heading directly south to Rupanyup before flying back across the Horsham township toward Mount Arapiles.... During the day a number of gaggles form and spectators at Horsham Aerodrome were able to see all the competitors flying together in the one thermal. The top three placings for day 5 were Peter Temple with a time of 1:30:58 and a speed of 118.00 km/h. Peter was followed home by Geoff Brown and David Jansen. At the end of Day 5 Mark Tingey leads the competition on 23 points, followed by Peter temple on 21 and Geoff Brown on 16.

06.01.2022 Sailplane Grand Prix Australia - Day 7 Summary The weather today, coupled with the reality of our pilots having to pack up a glider at the end of the competition resulted in a shorter task for the day, with a total distance of 157 kilometers via Rupanyup, Minyip and North of Dimboola before returning home. The shorter task resulted in all of our pilots staying fairly close together, and made for fantastic viewing at the finish line.

02.01.2022 Sailplane Grand Prix Australia - Day 6 Summary Day 6 was a hot and windy day, which provided its own unique challenges for our pilots. This morning our briefing was quite short, as it looked like it was going to be another great day of gliding across the Wimmera. The task set was 328 kilometers in length heading up to Hopetoun, West to Kaniva and then back to Horsham.... Today was the first day our pilots had the opportunity to gain some real height, with some of our pilots making over 12000 feet at points within the race, and travelling over 300km/h on the downwind leg.
01.01.2022 Day 4 has been cancelled due to poor weather - see you back tomorrow for a better day!
