Between Perry and Bermuda High Contests





Perry is the one of the most important contests in US as it attracts 65 top pilots from USA, Canada, Belgium and UK including current and former US World Team members.
  In 18 Meter Class we had 5 contest days and weather was challenging and similar to weather which we can expect in Poland.
After day one I started from third position and then moved to first place on day four with 92 points gain on second pilot.
I was able to keep my position on the last day of the contest and won Perry 2014 with 169 points lead over second place pilot.
Canadian pilots flying in Perry did extremely well this year as in 18 Meter Class we took first and third place , 15 Meter Class second and third place  ,  Sport Class second place and Open class third place. 
I think Perry 2014 was the best contest for Canadians in soaring history.
 

Next week I'm going to regional contest in Bermuda High South Carolina which has very close condition to Poland due to sandy soil and large areas of pine and spruce forests.
