Day 3 tasks

Day 3 is going to be an exciting day for flying.

First we start with a pure economy task where the pilots are given 2 litres of fuel. This is a soaring task to see if they can stay in the air with limited fuel for as long as possible without landing. They therefore have to catch thermals to try stay in the air AND avoid no fly zones! A trick to this is that they have to fly through a finish gate (which is an imaginary line on the map) and glide to land on a landing deck which is a little bit away from the finish gate. They have to do this on a glide so the height at which they come through the finish gate is important to make the distance to the landing deck.


P.S. Ricky said that he is not a moogoo but his engine is giving him grief and that is why he is scoring zero and he is not a moogoo.

The second task for the day is the exciting clover leaf slalom where our pro tony has some seriuos competition this year.
