2006 BMFA League 3 + Nationals
For once the Hole of Horcum was blessed with wonderful weather and good conditions. There were 26 pilots in EPP 60 (the second largest entry ever at this event) and 32 for F3F.
CD Paul Wright used a seeded matrix in EPP 60. This resulted in lots of close racing and a great final between Andy Ellison and Alex McMeekin.
Fastest time in F3F was 37.49 by John Bennett. As regards organisation, 256 flights were flown (a record), and Jon Edison tested his own design timer which worked very smoothly. This is due to be used for the VR.
The event was also designated the BMFA Nationals. So... the new National Champions are: Alex McMeekin (EPP 60) and John Bennett (F3F). Both pilots flew superbly, well done chaps.
Thanks to all involved in making this such a successful weekend. For full results see BMFA Slope Leagues. Also another report by Steve Clarke.
