9.45 PM.
Just back from the BBQ, before the party from the juniors started. Some had celebrated already and the atmosphere was just good!
So was the food, great ham, chicken sate , hamburgers , ice cream; for each liking something.
And a nice low flight from a HERCULES as a cherry on the cake.
Booze enough as well.I am sure it will continue till the morning.” Hundred years ago ” , I would have been the last to leave , now the first to go.
No worries!!!
It’s pretty demanding to write from hour to hour, so I am pleased to finish this Narromine blog in my room.
The UK team had the best fun driving around over the field toot and waving with UK flags. So deserved,as it is not often that on the last day a German pilot drops from 1 to 2 . UK pilots have been TOP already in the past so they added a bit of history with a first and third spot in club class .
Polish pilot Marek won the last day but UK pilot Tom was runner up with 948 points , his mate Sam with 9 points less. This way Tom climbed from 2 to 1 , and is the Club class JUNIOR WORLD CHAMPION .Philipp from Germany won the silver and Sam moved up from 7 to 3!!!
The German team occupied also spot 4 and 6. Spot 5 was for 17 year old James from Australia and we will surely hear more from him in the future!!!
A great spot 7 for Dutch pilot Nick and also certificates for the Polish pilots Jan [8] and Marek [10] and USA pilot Boyd for his 9 th place.
All others deserve a “feather in the cap” for flying safe and disciplined.
The happy UK boys !! As shared by the UK team with the text; JOB DONE!!!.
In Standard Class it was already pretty sure that Matthew was going to win, he is the new Standard class JUNIOR WORLD CHAMPION. He won with a difference of over 200 points to Dutch pilot Robin, who was very satisfied with his silver. The 3d spot was for German pilot Sebastian.
3 Polish pilots finished on a great 4th, 5th and 6th spot and get certificates as well as the number 7 and 8 from Czech Rep and on number 9 Thilo from Germany.
Congratulations Matthew!!!!
As shared by the organizers.
The TEAM CUP is for Germany, followed by Poland and the UK.
I loved being here, it was so much fun to catch up with so many and to be at a JUNIOR WORLD COMPS. This competition is friendly ,funny,easy going , but very disciplined and with very competent pilots between 17 and 25 years old.
Leaving tomorrow early as said already,… back to Tocumwal and more diary news from the rest of my holiday.
When I have not said GOODBYE to you, I do it NOW!!! Till we meet again.
Cheers Ritz
