2) Upon start signal, fly 11 miles heading 047 apx. to LSMM (Meiringen), fly-by the runway below 2,000ft. altitude

First wheels to touch the runway at Interlaken Wins!


I'm assuming that it's 'First wheels to touch the runway at Interlaken (& complete the landing without crashing) Wins!

Yes??

Cheers,

TSC.

Hi all,
Clipper, I've taken the liberty of drawing up a map to show the course, as well as your detailed instructions above. I hope you don't mind, and if you think that I am interfering, please don't hesitate to say.

Here is a (crude) map of the course:

Image

The green dot indicates the start line, and then follow the red line, leaving the green dot eastwards.

Cheers
;)

These 'touch and gos', are they real "air race" TGs (Just one touch at apx. 100 knots or so), or are they landing TGs (Touch at landing speed and a long roll)?

Air Race touch and goes....just make contact with the runway and move on...

We will NOT be using teamspeak as everyone is not equipped.

Hope you all noticed that... he didn't say you have to actually be pointing down the runway when you touch it  ;D
