Submitter's comments:	This is the last task for Midnight Oil. Points are doubled for this final task. There will not be a refly tomorrow. If you liked this competition, consider signing up for Low & Slow which starts Monday. We start really low (500m) and follow the beach ridges until we get an opportunity to get further inland and possibly catch some thermals there to reach our goal. There is no source of lift near the start. If during the jointime and warmup, you get too low for a proper start, just land on the airfield and hit refly. 2 min warmup followed by Regatta start!
