The current Winton site record (straightline distance from launch to landing) was set in Jan 2005 by Rob Steane. It started at this site and after a 60 klm flight in a NW direction, ended at Catagunya Rd, NW of Ouse. This was also the open Tasmanian record, for the next six years.
Takeoff altitude: 166m
