This is normally held annually, either at [[Gransden Lodge]] or OUGC's home airfield at RAF [[Bicester]]/RAF [[Weston-on-the-Green]], and is the traditional opportunity for us to show our skills against "the other place".
The rules are simple: teams of 6 attempt to soar locally for up to 50 minutes, gaining one point per minute, climbing for 2 points per 100 ft, and then to land before the 50 minutes are up as there is then a deduction of 6 points per minute. Flights which receive no points for time are not allowed to claim height gains.
