Ma
On Shan F3F
Slope Race and BBQ Night
16 November, 2003

A F3F competition was held in Ma On
Shan east-facing slope on Sunday, 16 November 2003. The weather was fine
with moderate northeasterly wind with average wind speed of 10km/hr.
Although the wind is not normal to the slope, it is still flyable most
of the time. Totally 21 pilots took part in the race which was started at 12:00pm and ended at
5:00pm. Due to the momentary northerly wind direction, the slope is
marginally flyable. The competition was on hold for about one hour after
two rounds of competition. At about 3:30pm the wind started to pick up
again and the direction changed favorably to northeast. Finally, four rounds of races
were completed. The best time is 65.81s by So Kwok Ying. The winner of
the day competition is Stanley Chan, congratulation! HKRCSS
would like to thank the sponsors including AMD and Eddie. Here are the detailed scores of the race:

The champion of the day Stanley (right) received a prize
|
The first runner-up Ah Wai (left) got a big prize
|
|
Master Fai is the second runner-up, but without the permission from his
wife, he can not stay for the BBQ, so Chester represented him to collect
the prize from the sponsor, Eddy
|
Despite of winning a title of the worse pick up of the day and a four
place in the competition, Mak (left) has no prize! What's a poor guy!
|
|
Fellow pilots were discussing the result in the score sheet. Sure, it is
a fair competition of skill, luck and of course the sailplane
|
Come on Master Leung, whenever there is food, you are the first one to be
there.
|
|
Enjoy the good BBQ food after a day hiking, cheers!
|
Stephen is the chief cook of the night.
