Lumby Air Races Results 2008

On Sunday June 15th over 70 pilots from all over western Canada and NW USA, filled the Lumby Valley sky for hours on end at altitudes of over 10,000 ft. in light and variable winds to conclude a vary successful 3rd annual Lumby Air Races.

Some Hang Glider and Paraglider pilots showed up in Lumby a week early to practice the race around a natural 10k rectangle and a natural 25k triangle over the village of Lumby BC Canada as part of Lumby Days, www.LumbyDays.ca . Natural meaning there is a visible turn point that usually produces lift. GPS confirmation was still required for scoring.

Lumby Scores - revised with a retraction

Looks like we made a few miscalculations at the end of the air races and now have the new winners list below.
If we would have taken more time to review the initial results it would have been easier to make it right before the presentations.
We will get it right next year and we hope you can understand.

For those that got a cheque and shouldn't have or those that didnt and should have we sincerely apologize.

You know who you are and I hope you choose to make it right between yourself ASAP.
If you require contact info please let me know

Lumby Air Races

We are in Lumby this weekend for a three day meet. Historicly Lumby has rain this weekend but the forecast is looking good. After all the rain we've been having over the last few weeks every one is very excited to get in the air. Can't wait to fly. I love this place when the conditions are on.
