ISAACSON WINTER CLASSIC
February 10-12, 2007
The 2007 Isaacson Winter Classic
Saturday weather was OK, air was very solid resulting in many maxouts in the F1 classes. A constant threat of rain resulted in only one ½ hour delay. An indicator of the air is the HLG scores, outstanding flyers but not a single max. Notable was Hal Cover’s string of 11, 180s. maxes in Gollywock (we’ll go back to Bob White’s champagne fly-off next year!).
Sunday was windy and many opted not to fly. This resulted in more pistachio nuts to share!
Just before awards, to resolve the third place tie in F1B, co CD Roger M resurrected the infamous Isaacson tie-breaker, but instead of HLG’s we used two Norm F. cat gliders. Ladi Horak and Bob Tymchek launched into a monster thermal, Tymchek’s spun in and Ladi was going OOS, luckily the DT brought it down for a 4min.+ flight. Best flight of the day!
Monday, F1E day, had winds over 20mph. We flew two rounds and finished after the world cup on Tuesday.
There were 170 entries in a truly international contest
