各位香港隊隊員好,經過左幾天比賽,是否己很疲累。YC的病是否痊愈,看見這幾天你們的成績越來越好,希望下來的賽事能做得更好,我們會你們打氣。祝你們好運!

維京賽終於完結﹐今次有機會見到世界頂尖級機師既技術﹐除左大開眼界之外﹐亦觸發起小小反思﹐就係日後香港競賽形滑翔機運動應該點樣走落去。

今次維京賽既個人成積三甲全部係德國人﹐幾個人既飛法極度相似﹐好似機器咁精確﹐美國隊既 Tim Cone 同我講﹐同德國人比賽就好似同一級方程式賽車手舒密加比一樣﹐真係爭好多班。

睇佢地飛咁多日﹐唔覺佢地既機特別快﹐但佢地轉彎清脆利落﹐毫不猶豫﹐次次都囉到非常貼個 base﹐航道又直﹐個個回合既表現都非常穩定。最初我地仲懷疑佢地有無特別 setting, 轉彎有無用 rudder 等等. 我就襯 Andreas Herrig 係 ready box 等出機時問佢﹐佢話佢轉彎無用 rudder﹐有用 snap flap 同 aileron -> rudder mixing, 佢仲即場郁 D servo 俾我睇 mixing 有幾多﹐elevator 俾盡﹐flap 大概 down 10mm, aileron 俾盡﹐rudder 大約 5mm, 逗逗佢隻機﹐覺得偏重。就係咁多﹐無也特別。所以我既結論係佢飛得咁好都係全靠D手指。

今此贏左既 Herrig 兄弟同 Klaus Kowaski 玩滑翔機都超過 10 年﹐而且比賽經驗非常豐富﹐同佢地比可能唔係咁合適。但今次比賽有隊人係來自南美既委內瑞拉﹐一個飛 NYX, 另一個飛 Sting, 成績好好。F3F 係佢地國內只有兩年半歷史﹐依家只有 6 個人玩。佢地飛既係內陸山坡, 風速唔高﹐大約係 18 km/hr. 但熱氣流就好好﹐所以升力夠玩 F3F. 問佢地飛得咁好有也秘訣﹐佢話係多練習。佢地通常都幾個人一齊飛﹐有人守住 A 同 B 點﹐不斷用對講機話返比個機師聽轉彎過左幾多﹐等機師可以鍛練對距離既判斷。德國 Herrig 兄弟同美國 Time Cone 都同我提過佢地有用同樣既訓練法。我地飛既時間唔會少過佢地好多﹐但係我地就算一班人飛都係各自兜黎兜去﹐認真程度真係同人爭好遠。

香港雖然都幾多人玩滑翔機﹐但係對競賽有興趣既人就少之又少﹐有興趣個班人又唔係玩得好有組織﹐係咁既情況下可唔可以深化競賽活動既發展好似 F3F 同剛起步既手擲機咁﹐真係好成疑問。或者大家可以就呢個話題發表下意見。下面係今日影既一D相﹕

Hello All,

The race should have 20 rounds, but round 20 was cancelled because of bad weather.
So, the results up to round 19 are final.

The Winner is Martin Herrig, Klaus Kowalski, and Andreas Herrig. All are team members of Germany. They are really FAST :shock:

Here are some photos at the awards ceremony and the banquet.

Can't take it home!
Lets take a photo with it instead :)

These are the three top pilots of F3F

This is it, for this year's Viking Race.
Results will be posted on VR2004 website.

I expect HongKong team can do better on VR2006.
Happy soaring :)

I have uploaded some movies taken during the Viking Race in Germany.

The first movie is the champion Martin Herrig who flew a perfect track with tight turns and high accuracy, that mean shortest course. You will see how accurate they are.

The second movie is from Y.C. who flew in the first round of the contest. You will see Y.C.'s track is much longer and the turns are wider - that is the difference from the world champion, sorry Y.C. I used yours as an example.

The third movie is from another VR2004 pilot who flew his plane using a splitS way. The turn is quite tight, also it can be lenghtened in case if the base is missed. The speed after the turn is also retained

啊麥,你同 Kelvin Newton 影個幅相上咗 Gliderking 喎

http://www.gliderking.com/modules.php?full=1&set_albumName=albun06&id=adi&op=modload&name=gallery&file=index&include=view_photo.php

我最近又將多啲維京賽影嘅 movies 放上網,睇睇吓發覺好多人嘅飛法都好有特點,如果可以集齊佢哋嘅大成,創出自巳一套絕技就好啦!
