Does that mean that some rotten, unspeakable cad has taken Goodhart's
Lasham to Portmoak record? If so, I am really disappointed - sorry
guys, but doing it in a Skylark 3 is much, much, much, much more of an
achievement than using a Nimbus 3D.

Seriously, I hope they have the decency not to claim the record.


There's a nice short description of their flight on the Lasham
website, http://www.lasham.org.uk/ for our foreign friends.
Looks like they can claim the distance record but were slower than the
Skylark.
