forest grump: Susan & I found in no problem (Orange & M21L). Given Orange is TD3 & M21L TD5 makes u wonder what the planning was thinking...???!!!

Alibongo: My Dad (M65L) lost a lot of time here too. He says that for such a shallow pit the kite should have been on the edge - see BOF Appendix B Course Planning 3.5.1. He had this pit in the relays in 2000 and found it no bother. Different Controller then though eh?

Lard: They should have adhered to BOF Appendix 4.7.6
"When hanging flags in heather and bracken remember that the little people can't see very far. Oh and don't use pits, they're crap. "
