Microlight FAI European Championships, Lezno
 

With no lottery funding and in the three categories Brit pilots entered,

they got 3 Golds, a Bronze and a fourth - 8 British reg aircraft took part.

No lottery funding and no money for winning.

I found this from Keith Negal - BMAA

"Paul Dewhurst & David Hadley took the dual 3-axis gold by a comfortable margin. Rob Grimwood & Chris Saysell won the gold in the biggest class, dual flexwing, and were also the highest scoring crew of the competition. The nail-biter was the solo flexwing task, won by Richard Rawes. At one time he was only 2 points ahead, although the eventual margin was a little higher. And as a bonus, Robbie & Timmy Keene won the dual flexwing bronze. Chris & Claire Wills came a very creditable 4th in the dual 3-axis class."
Keith accepted the Team Bronze - well done the Brits!

Anyone got any spare cash handy to help the crews get the Team Gold as well next time?

Did they get a handshake from Gurning Gordon, and a promise of tea, sticky buns and a gong at the Palace?

In 2003 the World Gliding championships were held in Leszno & the Brits came away with Gold, Silver & Bronze.

I later came away with a wife :ok:

One trusts she was your own?

She is now :ok:
