F3F Slope Race and BBQ
3 November, 2002

A F3F slope was originally scheduled to be held in Ma On Shan east-facing slope. However, due to the unfavour wind direction, i.e., northerly wind, the race was relocated to Clearwater Bay north-facing slope. There were 13 pilots participating in the race. The race was started at 12:00pm and ended at 4:00pm. Four rounds of the race were completed. The best time is 55.38s by Jacky Lo who also won the race, congratulation! HKRCSS also organized a BBQ right after the race. Again, for the convenient of most pilots, the BBQ venue was relocated from Ma On Shan BBQ ground to Pak Tam Chung in Sai Kung. Totally 25 participants took part in the BBQ for a night of friendly exchanges about the F3F race and other soaring and non-soaring related subjects, cheers! Here are the scores:
