Wigram Cup  (club team event)

1st   (John Brunskill, Lyndal Huxford, Daniel Campbell and Daniel Firth)
Daniel Campbell and Lyndal Huxford both 1st in their events

North Shore Trophy  (for the aero club with the most points overall)

Basic Aerobatic trophy:  David Campbell

Primary Aerobatic cup:  Trish Stephens

Forced Landing trophy:   John BrunskillJunior Navigation trophy:   Paul Taylor

Formation 3’s   John Brunskill, Shane Anderson and David Campbell

We also picked up 2 x 2nd places and 5 x 3rd places

Then because the Australian champions were here this year a team was selected from the winners of NZ champs to fly against them and our Formation 3 team and John Brunskill who had won the Forced Landing were in the team. The New Zealand Team won by a margin of 3 to 1. So consequently we won the Wings Trans Tasman cup as well.

Great day at club circuit comps

Times running out for the Nav comp. If you haven’t done so already give Aidan a buzz and fly the course, it’s a great way to brush up on some rusty skills and blow the dust of the computer. Finishes last week in Jan.
