Indiana State Records Approved

As State Record Keeper for Indiana, I have approved Ron Clarke's Distance Using Up To Three Turnpoints record claims from April 16. The records are:

Open singleplace class & 15 Meter class: 103.50 statute miles
Sports class: 91.60 statute miles

The Central Indiana Soaring Society has a long tradition of members pursuing state soaring records. Over a dozen current and former CISS members currently hold Indiana state records. In the aftermath of the recent Lee Bottom expedition, three of us plan to claim Kentucky state records. Even after decades of record chasing, there are still plenty of records within relatively easy reach on any good soaring day. Some category and class combinations have never been claimed at all. Straight distance to a goal in the PW-5, anyone?
