The final round of the BVMT was flown in some really challenging conditions. Every competitor had at least one bad flight. In slot 2 of the final round Andre Leusch took the honours with a time of 2min10seconds and a 4m spot!
Michel Leusch, who was 20 odd points behind Simon and Allan at the end of round 3 produced the best results of the day, closely followed by yours truely with 996. Allan was 3rd and Simon 4th. After a very shaky start young Ryan started to get to grips with the challenging conditions to finish 5th. Don, who was having some serious problems with his planes finished 6th and Andre 7th. Andre finished the day in style by wining slot 2 in the final round.
The Championship: As mentioned above, the scores were very evenly poised at the end of round 3. After his victory today, Michelle leap-frogged Allan and Simon and is the BVMT Champion for 2009. Simon Nelson finished second with Allan and Dennis joint 3rd. Ryan, the only junior in the competition finished a very creditable 5th overall.
I would like to thank all of those that participated in the event and hope that we can have even more pilots participating in 2010. Thanks also to Michel's girlfriend (sorry I have forgotten her name) for her assistance with the scoring. With her assistance the results were available before the planes had been packed away.
Cheers for now. Hope to see you at the field in the near future.
Kind regards,
Dennis
