by isleofman.com 18th July 2011

Manx Radio's team won the Manx2.com charity plane pull in aid of Hospice Isle of Man on Sunday, breaking the long-standing 20 second barrier with a time of 19.27 seconds.

Eight teams battled against the wind and rain outside the Manx2.com hangar at Ronaldsway, to pull an aeroplane over a 50 metre course against the clock.

The victorious Manx Radio team saw of stiff competition from Barclays, Freedom Travel, Manx2.com, Hospice and others.
