Flying Season is here, and so is the annual BMHGC competition !
The format for this season gives pilots a number of tasks that they can complete whenever they choose. Tasks are then uploaded to XCContest and scored at the end of the season.
This means that club members can compete when they can, rather than have traditional competition days.
A massive thanks to this years competition organiser; Tom Urie. Tom and Andy have set us some great challenges.
Good Luck Everyone
