G-Cup South
Pennsylvania - New Jersey
Monday November 02, 2009 - 05:53

The 2009 G-cup is over and an upstart group of XC pilots from
Brandywine Soaring have taken the GS South trophy - ending the 15 year
dynasty held by Aero Club Albatross. The BSA team accomplished this
amazing feat by launching a sustained series of long-winged cruise
missiles from their rebel base … taking the overall club lead … and
putting many BSA pilots in the top scoring spots. This may not be a
fluke as the BSA team members are all accomplished contest pilots and
will probably repeat next season. PGC came in a distant third - but
should not be counted out as they have a good roster and could easily
mount a substantial threat if they get serious about XC. Tune in next
season … it should be exciting.

Doubly devastating to me is the fact that I had pre-engraved the team
trophies for the remainder of the decade withe Aero Club Albatross
(ACA) as the victors. This could cost me some serious bucks.

All kidding aside, congratulatoins to the BSA team for mounting a real
challenge. With a total club size less than half of either of the
other major contenders, it's a serious accomplishment.
