2005 VMAA Trophy
Doncaster Aeromodellers -- taking it to 5 in a row with an equal first in 2005 after wins in 2001, 2002, 2003 and 2004!
There were many highlights as always, so let me touch on them with the results:
-
ARF Scale Aerobatics -- 2nd place to Daniel Travassaros. A great effort by Daniel.
-
Fun Fly -- 1st place to Cliff McIver. Despite many concerted efforts to beat him, Cliff remains King of this event!
-
Club Racing -- 1st place to Graham Kay. This was a real fight to the finish and an excellent effort by Graham given a relative lack of practice!!
-
Fun Scale -- 6th place to Noel Whitehead. Our regular competitor on a world scale delivered another good performance.
-
Musical Landings -- 6th place to Boz Student. The model had an unfortunate coming together with the ground and din't recover!
-
Old Timer Duration -- Kevin Fryer was all ready to go -- but the weather closed in and the event wasd cancelled.
-
Seven Cell Glider -- 1st place to Anthony Peate. Anthony's second appearance and a win!!
-
Most Unusual Model -- The Eyeball was ready -- but the weather closed in and the event was cancelled!
-
Thermal Soaring -- Did not compete.
