During the recent Hungarian Nationals, a good six out of eight possible days were flyable. The weather was different every day with mostly cumulus clouds except for one dry day (also the slowest competition day).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

During recent years most top Hungarian pilots have switched to a JS1 or JS3 which was evident in this competition as half of the class flew JS gliders – resulting in a real competition again each other!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cDespite relatively poor weather, the average speeds were really good thanks to new generation gliders like the JS3″ said Zolt\u00e1n K\u00f3r\u00e9.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cAlmost every task was won with an average speed of more than 140 km\/h thanks to high gliding speeds between thermals.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Zolt\u00e1n K\u00f3r\u00e9 and teammate Zolt\u00e1n Hamer competed for the first time in the same type of glider. According to K\u00f3r\u00e9, it worked very well and they were able to maintain the lead throughout the contest.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“We could try the advantage of the JS3 below cloud streets with high-speed dolphining and also long glides from below the high cloud base – it was an awesome performance. This was my second real 18-meter competition and a first for my partner – previously we flew mostly the in 15-meter class. We enjoyed it very much!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The contest concluded with a very unique final result:   podium only filled with Zolt\u00e1ns and JS3s\u2026.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
