Nigel Bathe Wins Silver at the 2008 World Championships in Spain
Nigel Bathe had three maximum times in the S4A boost glider class at the world championships in Spain, putting him in a four way fly off. The light was fading as the fly off took place and Nigel's small white glider was always going to be hard for the timekeepers to track. Both Nigel and Gabriel Constantinescu of Romania had excellent flights in the final fly off, and Nigel was just beaten into second place.
