Dear fellow
pilot
Spring and
Summer are just around the corner.
While the
weather man was a little harsh this year, giving us only two competition days
and two non-competition flying days in the 2014 Central Districts Gliding
Competition, we are being told by those who should know in the weather office,
here in Hawkes Bay we can expect a warmer, better summer than last year.
GNZ have given
us the Central Districts Championships to be held from Waipukurau Aerodrome
from Sunday 15th to Saturday 21st February
2015 inclusive with Saturday 14th available as
a practice day.
We can again
offer great hospitality and if the weatherman is correct, fantastic flying
conditions of mainly thermals but also convergences and occasional gentle wave
in February.
There are
plenty of accommodation choices to suit every pocket from camping on the
aerodrome itself to cabins at local camping grounds, motels and hotels etc.
Being only 30 minutes from Hastings,
there are plenty of options for after hours activities and the other half.
Plan your
flying break now in an area with some paddocks larger than airfields if on the
odd occasion you have need of one.
Further
information is available at http://cdchamps.blogspot.co.nz/
and this will be updated as time progresses. Also watch your e-mails for
updates.
So, put the
dates of this contest (Sunday
15th to Saturday 21st February 2015 inclusive with Saturday 14th available as a practice day) on your
calendar and plan for a great fun trip to Hawkes Bay
this summer.
