July Challenge
2016-07-18 09:59
Flying has improved over the last few days, We are committing to have a mini challenge at the end of the month 30 / 31 st July 2016
We have upgraded LiveTrack 24, the scoring will be based on what they did at the Barberton comp.
This will be the perfect opportunity for low airtime pilots to take a stab at goal.
Goal will be downwind, and less than 20km for the ENA pilot.
And the CCC pilots will have a more challenging task - 60 km
We will arrange recovery for all pilots flying the task as well as 1 trip to takeoff.
Pre-comp presentations:
First aid:
Be part of our workshop on paragliding First aid (severe fractures, spinal and head injuries.) this is a reality in our sport and if we can train people to work together in a group, and understand the risks.
We can be more effective during an accidents or incidents
We have a stretcher and a well equipped first aid kit available at Eagles, but is useless unless we know how to use it.
Most of us has done a level 1 first aid course, which is a good start, but we received very little information dealing with severe fractures and other paragliding related injuries.
Winter flying:
There will also be a discussion on flying during the winter, and pointers on how to approach the task.
Time line:
Saturday 30th
07:00 - 08:00 Welcoming Coffey and snacks
08:00 - 09:00 First aid presentation
09:00 - 09:30 Winter flying presentation
09:30 Equipment checks and instrument setup
10:00 Pilots briefing
11:00 Window opens
12:00 Start
18:00 Braai at Eagles
Sunday:
Free fly task:
Longest flight duration - multiple takeoffs are allowed, only one flight will count.
We have created a what's app group, for formal communication and safety. .... No chit-chats allowed
Please visit Livetrack24 and register on the Eagles mini challenge as soon as possible.

Next Mini Challenge - 2016-02-06
We are planning a mini challenge at Eagles Nest in Rustenburg on the 6 & 7 Feb 2016Its a fun challenge, and the goal is to expose new pilots to the competition environment.
Its a handicap system, the ENA / LTF1 pilots fly about 20Km and the CCC pilots 70Km
The turn points and cylinders are positioned to allow the ENA pilot to follow a safe downwind route through known house thermals to goal, and the CCC pilot flies two Crosswind legs to goal totalling 70Km
Costs are kept to a minimum and the entry fee will be around R50/challenge, to cover some of the expenses related to organising the comp. This will not be possible without our sponsors and volunteers.
We have organised retrieve and 2 trips/pilot up and down eagles nest
We organised other entertainment at eagles nest like a Spitbraai, Jumping Castles, Tandem flights for spectators etc.
Its a Fun event for all pilots and their families.
