This was our 5th task after 2 days of rain.
We sat around launch not especially optimistic about the chances of a flight bit then they decided to open launch at 11:45am.
I was first off in the open launch as my allocated start number was 83 (pretty near the end).
I didn't turn my GPS/vario on until after launch.
Start was to open at 1:50 so I struggled around launch until about 2:10 when the task was stopped due to rain on the course.
Greg had got away, while Andrew Larry and I top-landed behind launch.
My total flight time was about 1 hour 30 minutes, all around launch.
