26 JUN 07: TOM CASSELLS TAKES HIS CAP 232 TO TOP

Tom Cassells takes his CAP 232 to top of the Unlimited
 
THE top three pilot's classes from the British Aerobatic Association struggled with the weather at Elvington over the 11-12 May weekend.

Most flying was completed on the Saturday when the BBMF also made a triple fly-by for the benefit of York Aviation Museum's crowds.

Intermediate pilots had time only for one sequence from which Simon Johnson's Pitts emerged the clear winner of the Roy Legg Trophy.

However, both the Advanced and Unlimited classes managed two of their three allotted tasks. LOOP aerobatic correspondent Alan Cassidy and his Extra 300 was the Advanced level victor and Tom Cassells just headed off Richard Gee in the Unlimited class to claim the Nathaniel Alony Trophy - both pilots CAP 232 mounted.
