Quest Air Open and Reopen

Post by krryerson »

Down here in Florida now, for Quest Air Reopen, which started on Monday, and is a 7 days comp.
Definitely the place to be now, and pilots that started with Quest Open, have been flying now every day (9), in great conditions.
Flew in open class yesterday, with my kingpost wing and
almost made it back to goal. Short distance task, but challenging flying back with a cross wind.
More CHGPA pilots that tow, should definitely try this next year.
Soaring up to a cloudbase that is 5000-6000, XC around down here, with plenty of landings, doesn't make it much better.
Unfortunately, airtribute did not work correctly during comp yesterday, which has been an on/off problem for the comp.
But if interested, check my flight at

And when working, check us at Aitribune Quest Air Open/Reopen.
At last, John Simon is really smoking everyone down here, using under an hour on yesterday's task, which I used 2 1/2 hour, being 8 km short.
Life is good!
Knut
