DSCN8479.jpg45 viewsThank you all that helped and participated, it was a great day and the layout of the pit area and frequency pound worked very well
The wind was very gusty for the ww1 aircraft, however the day was a great success. 37 aircraft entered, this was the best roll out yet.
Spectator numbers where low most probably due to the weather and the Thawa bridge being out of action.
Results for scale as follows First : Ray Botten with the King Fisher, second: John Armarego with the Swopwith Pup, third : Grant

180 chosen for weight as the DR1 is usually tail heavy but also so that a large diameter prop can be swung.
