UK Mountain Soaring Championships 2012


This competition will run from 2nd - 8th September 2012.

This is a unique competition, non-rated but governed by the Regionals rules and scoring. The tasks are set to allow all levels of pilots and gliders to compete over the stunning Scottish scenery in some truly awesome wave and thermal conditions.

I have competed a number of times and I recommend that any pilot with a Silver badge and desire to explore life beyond the Tarland bowl enters the comp. It is a great way to learn, in the company of some of the UK's top pilots. Use 2012 as a year to push yourself to achieve new things in gliding, and make this a defining target.

Apart from anything, its just a good laugh.
