New world record longest task called and made
https://youtu.be/HQDrrb6VNUk
No FAI comp has ever completed a 214km task, and we needed to fly
that in less than six and a half hours. We don't even have a waypoint for that.
It's off the maps. It's almost Queensland!! Fortunately we have 'can-do' pilots
in this comp. And on Saturday they certainly showed they were up for the
challenge, even on a blue day.
The first of 31 pilots to goal was Donizete Lemos of Brazil, in 5h20m. Jeff
Ripley was the first Kiwi in goal in just under six hours, with Reuben Muir 19
minutes later and Stuart Mackintosh another five minutes behind that.

I do believe that I continue to hold site record record flying my
ATOS into Queensland, 232 miles or 373 km.
