Task Week

MSC Task Week 21st– 27th Nov Do you want to fly with friends? Would you like to stretch your wings a bit? Want to fly a few tasks rather than free flying? Want to fly mid-week? Would like to encourage new X-country pilots into contests? Do you want tow planes and retrieve people on-call? Want to practise your wx forecasting and task planning? Did you answer “yes” to one or more of these questions? The opportunity has arisen to hold a Task Week alongside Matamata Soaring Centre introductory Cross-Country course the week before the Northern Regional’s. We will have tow-planes, tasking facilities and friends on-site from the 21st Nov to the start of the Northern Regional’s. If the beginners X-country course is not for you, you have your only glider, or a club glider with the appropriate ratings, why not come along for some challenging tasks. Weather forecasts and tasks will be set every morning. Launching will be with the X-Country course participants (as will be the beers afterwards), success is in your hands. Task Week costs - $15 per day for each day you fly…no fly no costs. (Tows, accommodation, glider costs and so forth, at your expense). “Jan’s Happy Cafe” will be open - Cheap MEAL DEAL available - $140 for Dinner, Breakfast and Lunch for the 6 days…better value than the Kahu Café at Omarama. Note – To participate in Task Week you need to have completed a X-country Course or competed in a formal gliding contest.
