Erik, I don't know about the worst count but I know landing out before
getting thru the start gate felt like several landouts at the same time - Ouch! (Fairfield Regionals, my first contest) I learned no matter how stupid you want to be, try not to embarass your crew too! Bill Watson (Foureyes) Papa3 wrote: wrote: Two landouts on the same day. Contest task, landed out (at a gliderport) while on course, got a tow and rejoined the gaggle on the return leg, then landed out again (along with just about everybody else!) when a cloud deck moved in and shut off all lift. So, this gets me to wondering, "What's the worst (best?) landout count for a single day." I'll admit to a two-bagger twice in my career. Seems hard to believe that there could be more than two... Enquiring minds want to know. Erik Mann LS8-18 (P3) |
