RC Slope Soaring in Hong Kong

Hi Ah MAk,

You make me recall this:

落雨不怕 落雪也不怕 就算寒冷大風雪落下 . .. 如何大風雪也不怕 (星仔走天涯 )

The international races taught us one important thing: To get good result you have to adapt to the new flying conditions FAST. The sooner you feel comfortable to the new flying site, the better result you can get. So lets take this chance as a practice.

Hi Allan,

I am really sorry to make you so frustrated on racing too frequently. Particularly I understand the psychological effect if we have to race in difficult landing sites under bad weather conditions.

Let’s put it that way. We will go there on Sunday. If the rain is heavy we cancel the race. Anyway even if the race is cancelled, it is by any mean still a good gathering for us to escape from a week long hard work in the cramped office.

You know I myself would only be able to go out one every two weeks or even one per month for glider flying. I see the race in each month as a kind of F3F practising only, I do not have time to fly other gliders don't even mentioning a time slot for pre-race F3F practising.

In fact, I think it is quite boring if me alone or only a few of us to go F3F practising. I rather enjoy big group gathering and flying.

Why don't we see the race as a kind of ordinary F3F practising with a large group of friends sharing the same interest and spending a day relaxing on the slope?
If you think that way, you will certainly feel more comfortable to race with crazy guys like us!

Hey, C.M.,

I think you missed one other very important point here. We have to train ourselves to survive in harsh landing conditions; the survivability of the planes is also a major factor for wining the contest

勿野"沙拉姐"呀
改 D 咁女性化既名，佢日後點係山頭野嶺上生存呀

Ah Pong 以前隻"神舟史汀"就有氣概得多啦！

不如就叫佢做 "屍落屎"啦。

Oh, sorry, 講錯。 係"司樂史"

"The following's were written in invisible ink, which only F3F pilots can read" :

Stanley,

I had a belief.
We F3F guys are all Nuts.
Don't you try to tell us, there are sensible people within the group!

When a person who spends days and weeks to build a plane, then crash it into pieces. Rebuild it, so that he can smash it up on the slope again!
Do you really belief he don't want to fly as often as possible?

His message must have been written while he was on-line with his better half. so that the onlooker feels more comfortable !

Just do it.
We will all get crazy and be happy guys.

點呀!!!呢個星期曰天氣係有雷暴及落雨,仲要揸往支天線,連呀"沙拉"姐都有支避雷針,呢支野唔避雷嫁!!死多二錢重呀!!真好擔心............

天氣錦樣!!!!!仲可以比賽??雷暴會死人........呀

以天文台今日的預告是雷暴，但其實只是朝早兩個鐘有雨和雷暴，下午就放晴，

天氣好差喎!

可唔可以在中午決定呀!!!要同D同事調更調假,太遲決定好難做呀

我隻愛麗詩身驕肉貴﹐唔捱得架﹐不如都係改期啦。

赤"立"吹反了一隻海豚直升機,嘩正呀,唔係黑心,現在才知應該大嶼山發堀飛行塲!!!!!!

嘩！咁勁？
不入虎穴，焉得虎子！
今個星期日是創造個人最佳記錄的好時機呀！

大家越講越開心，但我收到風，今天又有一班人在南位F3F賽場上種樹。還是明天到場地去看一看才作決定。

係呀﹗新聞岩岩講架﹐話陣風有 129 km/hr 咁勁呀﹗如果係既話就真係好有可能創造個人最佳記錄架﹐係個人都飛埋入 track 果種呀﹗

綜合各位機手的意見，比賽安排如下：

9/6（星期六）中午作決定，如果星期六無雨及無雷，比賽如期舉行；如果星期六有大雨及雷暴，比賽將順延17/6 或 25/6 (星期日)。(示符DLG比賽情況)

CM，今日的閃電好多，下午有６百幾次。由於我們在高地比賽，安全亦很重要。如果天文台有雷暴警告，我們亦要考慮取消比賽。

The DLG event in Shenzhen is scheduled on 17 June 2007. However, we need to confirm the condition of the flying field after next Thursday or Friday. The forecast of next week is still heavy rain and thunderstorm.
If the weather is good and the field is dry next Sunday, we better fly DLG as scheduled. Should The DLG event at 17 June be delayed, it can be rescheduled to other day in late July.

Strongly agree We have to be responsible for the safety of pilots

If the weather forecast is not promising, we should re-schedule the race

明天究竟賽唔賽呀？
我覺得如果明天唔賽，就索性取消此場比賽，唔好改期啦！因為這會製造混亂，對某些機手唔公平。我記得以前會經討論過，如果比賽因天雨關系就取消唔再改期。況且我地每個月都有比賽，所以一年

I will come up. In case of loss of contact, please use walkie talkie at channel 18 or SMS.

I will bring a RC car tomorrow

炒機也不怕! 致死即怕...閃电,打雷也! 好! 我 閃.......................................电都到！
