The Sailplane Expo results for 2006 have been added to this site in the form of PDF documents. You will need to have Adobe Acrobat Reader installed on your computer to access these results. If you do not have it, you can go to the Adobe web site and down load it for free.

When you view a PDF document of results you can print out the pages. To return to this web page, simply close the PDF file. To navigate around the Electric Flight in Australia site, use the links in the side-bar to access different sections of the site.

This year the overall results appear first on the PDF document, and under the overall results are the scores by individual for each round - so you can look at all the placings and final score, and then scroll down to get the detail for each competitor.

The Bald Eagle trophy (for the best thermal flier over 50 years of age - donated by Warwick Paynter and Des Kingdom from Coffs Harbour) was won by Alan Lowe from Sydney.
