A few sore heads this morning! Jonny put on his morning glory vid last night and Connie (Bobbies wife) cooked a lovely meal for us all then we tried to drink the weather better;-)

Even 'Sue' had a few to drink!

Flytec Race & Rally - Day 3 - Task 2 : 87km Stopped

Task stopped – might not have been activated at 10km? Very windy and turbulent in an almost totally blue sky. Most landed back at Quest where we will be for the next 2 days due to the forecast wind direction.

It was a nice morning at Quest

Flytec Race & Rally - Day 2 - cancelled


No task today – cancelled

The sky looked very nice earlier on but was too windy to fly – only just blown out – it is now lovely and blue as I chill out by the pool at Quest in the sunshine after a swim in the lake.

Surprisingly there were no sore heads this morning from last night’s bottle walking and cardboard game!


Nature's light show as the storm came through last night was incredible shame I’ve only photos of the rain!

Seems that Florida’s wildlife is making itself known........ Jeff Shapiro had an interesting time when he landed with an Ali and one of the Brazilian pilots was greeted by 3 black snakes! So far I’ve just been visited by the incredible fire ants which are unbearable and I’m sure sometime soon my feet will rot off!

Flytec Race & Rally - Day 1 - Task 1 update



Day 1 of the Flytec Race & Rally

Task 1 - 67km

I did pants. We took off early as the sky was overcast with embedded cu with a stiff breeze. We drifted out of the start about 8 mins before the start and 10 mins after I landed the cu and blue appeared after doing 17.6km! Sometimes its a luck thing, something I aint got! I landed in the same field as Davis and he and Belinda gave me a lift to Quest – thanks Belinda :-)

Dustin was the first in followed by Jonny the last one in. Every one else was somewhere between goal and launch.

It absolutely chucked it down here last night as the storm came in from the North.
