Prize-giving and issue of results - confirm organisers provide results with full names, nationalities and number of juniors | UK domestic models were being flown during the Stonehenge Cup and the scoreboard and printed results showed these integrated with the World Cup results. This was misleading and even confused the organisers at the prize-giving. The prize-giving was held on the field at the end of flying. |
