Club Class Nationals 2015
January 21-31, 2015
Auckland Gliding Club, Drury
You’ll really enjoy our site:
- Located at the foot of the Drury Hills, where the bush-clad slopes provide an early start to thermal activity
- Just 2 glides to the early convergence along the Firth of Thames
- Easy access to the Swamp and Kaimai Ridge takes you onto the edge of the Central Plateau for longer tasks
- Convenient forest at Maramarua for evening thermals to get you home
Or alternatively, try a different type of terrain
- Access the hill country West of the Waikato River without airspace worries
- Pio Pio via back of Pirongia Mountain, 300 km out & return
- Plenty of airstrips in the hills
- How about “around Hamilton airspace”?
And on the way home, either way, convergences set up to make your life interesting.
Longest flight from our site: Patrick Driessen, 730 km FAI Triangle!
Camping and Catering on site!
Accommodation handy (lots of options)
Plenty of “wet day” activities nearby
