Day 7 cancelled.....

The forecast looked promising with light and variable winds but a fast moving front to the south proved the weather bureau wrong. Pre-frontal northerly winds were racing across the region most of the morning. By the final Team Leaders HQ re-briefing at 12.30pm there was no change and winds at Mt Borah were averaging 30km/h with gusts to over 40km/h. Perfect skies but too windy. The day was cancelled....

Results from Day 6. Middy came in at 18th, Harmo at 39th and Thomas at 68th. New Zealand is now 5th in the teams competition! The next team with only three members is Denmark - and they are in 16th position. Overall Middy is in 8th, Harmo in 21st and Thomas in 35th. Harmo is currently third ranked female!!

Well done Harmo, beating Christian Maurer! You must've learned something from Extreme Dude.

NZ team is 5th with only 3 pilots - bloody impressive flying by all of you!
Manilla in the rain obviously hasn't slowed you down...
Cheers,
