Harry had the FAI guys fly their final P-13 flight first thing in the morning. This got us caught up with the rest of the other classes. The Intermediate, Advanced and Masters then flew after us and once done we broke for lunch.
The round three scores were also posted and then the fun began for the FAI guys. Harry took his judging panel and gave instructions on what to be looking for in the F-13 maneuvers. In particular the "opposite" type rolls that required a reversal immediately... "no hesitation" as Michi says in his Japanese accent:-) After the judging review Ivan put up the first round of F and got things rolling along. Each plane was once again sound checked prior to each flight but there were no planes that had issues that I know of.
The rounds continued under a slowly growing blow out winds until everyone had finished their flights. The crew quickly started to break down the flying site and return it to it's original condition.
Scores were calculated and the winners announced.
