Thunderstorms were predicted so a challenging course that would take advantage of the unstable conditions , yet avoid the probable thunderstorm location around the Macpherson ranges was chosen. Conditions proved more stable than the forecast and the goal was not achieved, although the winning pilots successfully flew further than yesterday's task, achieving 2 turnpoints. The GPS turnpoint verification worked well.
