The 2009 East Coast Championship
http://www.aerosports.net/
One hang gliding competition that got approved without any controversy is the East Coast Championships. I love this meet. It is so much fun and so challenging and so safe. And the conditions are just wonderful. The site is amazing, the people are great. The meet organizers top notch. Everyone should go to this competition. You'll never regret it.
The meet will be held from May 31st to June 6th, Sunday through Saturday. This is the prime cross country season for Delaware. It will costs $400, including aerotowing, for early entrants and $500 who apply late.
David Glover will be the meet director. He will be downloading the flights and I'll be overall in charge of scoring. The format will be race to goal, and with light winds it will be possible to come back to the flight park. Even with goals away from the flight parks, it is easy to get back home quickly.
The flight park is in the middle of rural Delaware with open fields for landings all around. The air conditions are superb with perfectly pleasant thermals.
Adam Elchin and Sunny Venesky are our wonderful hosts. Sunny will likely fly in the competition and Adam will be flying one of the Dragonflies.
There will be a sport class, and rigid wings are invited. The Sport Class has been a big success here at Highland Aerosports. In the evenings we can go scooter towing across the ponds on wake boards. Very dangerous.
