Again another incremental (20 km) increase in the task length from the preceding day. 55 pilots in goal with Mario Alonzi last into goal at 5:47 over two hours later than Christian.. Christian and Alex were on final glide with Christian higher and going faster when Alex stopped to work some lift thinking perhaps that he wasn't going to make it after all.

Pedro 6th, with pilots clumped together. Petr Polach was out in front but had to find some lift in the last cylinder to be able to make it in fourth ten minutes behind Christian.

Christian Ciech's Penalties on Task 3

Mon, Aug 23 2021, 3:16:06 pm MDT

Just short of goal

Christian Ciech|Davide Guiducci|Filippo Oppici|Marco Laurenzi|Monte Cucco Piero Alberini International Trophy 2021|Moyes Litespeed RX|PG|Tullio Gervasoni|Wills Wing T3

I wondered in the last Oz Report why Christian got fewer time and arrival points than pilots who were slower than he was. Turns out if I had looked more closely I would have seen that he made the end of the speed section but just came up 90 meters short of the goal cylinder. His points were docked 20%.

Paraglider scoring takes away all your time points if you don't make it to the goal cylinder and there are no arrival position points.

Task 3 at the Monte Cucco Piero Alberini International Trophy 2021

Filippo Oppici|Marco Laurenzi|Monte Cucco Piero Alberini International Trophy 2021|Steven "Steve" Pearson|triangle

The task:

No Leg Dist. Radius
1 0.0 km 400 m
2 Ss 2.3 km 15000 m
3 36.8 km 5000 m
4 56.8 km 3000 m
5 91.4 km 5000 m
6 113.3 km 2000 m
7 Es 119.4 km 1000 m
8 120.0 km 400 m

The task is almost an out and return from the start of the speed section (SS) to the end of the speed section (ES). The leg distances shown in the chart above are the optimized distances, those displayed on the map.

Three pilots had average task speeds of over 59 km/h (36.7 mph) in the speed section.

# Name Speed (km/h)
1 Filippo Oppici 59.4
2 Marco Laurenzi 59.2
4 David Gregoire 59.1

The optimized task distance between the SS and the ES is 116.939 km.

Steve Pearson asks the question, is this the highest task speed attained in a competition in Europe for a triangle or out and return task over 100 km?

The weather turns

https://airtribune.com/springmeeting-2019/blog__day_5

Pilots are already on takeoff. Weather seems perfect today, so we expect to go in the air early in the afternoon for a consistent task.

Because pilots weren't assigned Flymaster trackers through Airtribune, live tracking on Airtribune doesn't work for this competition. Follow the pilots on the Flymaster web site.

The task has started: https://lt.flymaster.net/bs.php?grp=2636

You can see the Replay from yesterday here: https://airtribune.com/play/4032/2d at the two times faster speed (compared to the Flymaster web site). The Airtribune replay uses the IGC files found here: https://airtribune.com/springmeeting-2019/results. The Airtribune Replay user interface is vastly superior to the Flymaster Playback user interface. It does have a problem with screen clutter on cell phones.

The meet filled up in three days. We have 82 pilots registered. We are currently looking at expanding the number of pilots who can attend. Frankly we had no idea that this would happen so quickly. We have to follow the following USHPA rule:

All competitors should be registered on a first-come, first-served basis except during the first 30 days of registration, where 30% of the available places may be held for the top 20 NTSS and top 30 WPRS ranked pilots.

We'll use NTSS and WPRS rankings as of November 1st, 2017.

To secure a higher place in the order that pilots are chosen to participate in the competition, we need pilots to be confirmed. To be confirmed you need to register, fill out on-line and send in your correct waivers and medical form (use Adobe Acrobat DC - the free version, https://helpx.adobe.com/reader/faq.html), and pay the entry fee. See:

https://airtribune.com/2018-quest-air-national-series/info/details__info

https://OzReport.com/waivers.php

https://OzReport.com/2018QuestAirpay.php

We will keep track of the order in which pilots are confirmed (everything is time and date stamped), check any forms for errors, and notify pilots if they are allowed entry into the meet.

One of the favorites is current world champion Christian Ciech, winner of the Worlds at Valle de Bravo in Mexico in 2015. Other pilots also contenders for the title, are the top five in the ranking: Australian Jonny Durand, number one Pre-World Cup winner in 2016 in Brasilia, Brazilian André Wolf, Italians Filippo Oppici and Davide Guiducci, and Austrian Thomas Weissenberger.

The would add other contenders at the very least, former World Champions, Alex Ploner and Attila Bertok, as well as Zac Majors, who just beat Christian in similar conditions at Dinosaur. Other USA team members, for sure. Perhaps Corinna, who just won the German Open.

2017 Governador Valadares Open

Rain on course

http://naughtylawyertravels.blogspot.com.br/2017/03/valadares-day-4-task-2.html

Finally a second task here at Valadares. We had one day of off-and-on rain and a second day of steady rain all day. Many of the city streets were like little streams. But, flying was back on yesterday and they flew a nice out and return of about 90km that turned out to be more difficult than expected due to - yes - more rain!

Most landed between the turnpoint and goal where the clouds were heavy and the ground shaded. But, Jonny and David made goal first and apparently got to pack up in heavy downpours. Pippo, Andre and Konrado came in nearly an hour later after waiting out the rain. But, other than those, no others made it in and in fact some big names landed quite short near the turnpoint (Davide Guiducci and Nene). They're using an end of speed section goal here and another pilot, Jose, made the end of speed section but not the goal cylinder. Under Brasilian rules, when a pilot makes the end of speed section, but not the goal cylinder, he gets no arrival or other points - it's as if he didn't make goal at all, other than getting points for his distance. This is different than the score he would get using the current version of FS with GAP.

The most special thing about flying in Brasilia is the Esplanade goal field. A perfect 118km task finally brought us back here to the city today. There’s nothing more exciting that watching the lead gaggle come across the tops of the tall buildings and set up an approach in what is basically a park between the two directions of traffic – four lanes each on both sides. The field seems pretty big when you see it empty. But with twelve gliders setting up to land, especially in light and variable conditions, it quickly shrinks.

Olav Opsanger and Jonny Durand came in pretty close (with Olav first), even setting up and landing together. Another ten or so came in one after the other behind them in the first gaggle.

Tom, who is in first overall as of yesterday arrived with half of his battens tips broken and sticking 4 or 5 inches out of their pockets. Apparently he inadvertently did what he called a “½ loop” in air so strong and turbulent that he thought he would tumble. He pulled out of it at high speed and his carbon basebar slammed him in the throat while the batten tips were busy breaking off. All that fun, and he believes he may have unintentionally violated the airspace as well, in a climb late in the task that he just couldn’t get out of in time. It’s really going to mix things up if he gets a zero for the day.

Wolfi high 15 minutes before the start.

Rory Duncan writes:

Had a bit of bummer today. Was sitting in 13th place in the pre worlds here in Brazil, but I think I might drop quiet a few positions after I accidentally breached the 9000ft ceiling. (Which can be very hard to stay under while flying in such strong conditions!) And then I miss judged the final glide into the city and had to land in someone's backyard on the lake 3km short of goal. At least I got to have swim while waiting for a ride.

Tulio at goal here. The big picture (surrounding).

There was a 9,000' ceiling. I would not appreciate having to stay below a given height. I see the point of keeping folks out of clouds. Pedro won yesterday and exceeded the height limit today to get a zero.

Wings on Tour story

The best day by far compared to the last 10 days of flying here! Big air with 5-7 meters/second up, beautiful cloud streets, less wind and a cloudbase not much higher than our 2,700 meter ceiling - thank god!

Primoz won the day with our Austrian fellow Christian 5th, Tom Weissenberger around 7th place. Nene tumbled but stays unhurt which is most important! Next days are looking promising as well with a dying cold front passing tonight bringing some humid air masses, like today.

Jonny, Tom, Nene and Pedro in the first four places.

Tom Weissenberger writes at Wings on Tour:

Brasilia day 2, task 2: tricky and blue 100 km with many pilots in goal joined by just one single girl - and the only right one, yeah! :)

Conditions at the start gate at 1:20pm were not favorable with broken lift up to 2.000-2.300 m, still everybody left as together we are strong!

First TP 30 km down SW on the plateau kept us first along the ridge where ENE winds pushed up good lift but also with big sink in between! After jumping onto the plateau thermals got better and the main gaggle bigger. It was not the day for pushing out in front alone and into the blue, so I forced myself to play that game. To my big surprise I played it well trying to be always on top of the gaggle and leaving when everybody else did, oh boy, nerve killing!

Anyway, TP2 was a tricky one 30 km back into wind but also situated on the edge of the ridge close to launch. Once I hit a strong rocket thermal but as soon I started to enjoy the consistent 5m up I already had to dive out again not to get over the vertical limit of 2.745m, damn! Also we could not get high enough to make it back to the ridge again but winds died down so this ridge's dead zone on its lee side was starting to work! So we managed to fly just behind the ridge and right on course to TP2 where all of a sudden Pedro could catch up and join us after taking the 2nd clock, damn damn!

As soon this piece of hard work was done a 35 km downwind leg into goal was the final reward. I could go on final glide first - after playing the gaggle game well - together with Pedro and Marco.

So Pedro should win the day with me and Marco first in goal pending on leading bonus. But the best part of the day was to welcome Kathleen in goal, abraco, record lady!

The 30-40 leading points were so so much smaller than the 150 speed points that Pedro was able to gather by going second.

http://www.hgoutlanders.com/pre-worlds-day-2/

As it turns out, Pedro wasn’t in position to take the first start and was forced into the second. It worked for him because he caught the lead gaggle near the last turnpoint and came in together with them.

Congratulations to Balazs Ujhelyi for winning the Italian Nationals in a mighty strong field! The scores show him flying an RS4 but he was actually flying his new RX4!

Balazs wrote to me:

Glider was super also on this comp, I enjoy the Rx feeling a lot and how it hooks into the thermal.

When I asked him about his result he comment was ”quite good”!

Way to go Balazs!

Once again, leading and arrival position points are just time/speed points. In this race numerous pilots who didn't make goal received leading points comparable to the fourth pilot into goal, but they were minimal. Distance points were a major factor as only four pilots made goal and time points made the difference between pilots making goal and those not making goal.

Once again leading and arrival position points are just stand ins for time or speed points. All these pilots that made goal started at the same time. The pilots that didn't make goal and did get some leading points, got very few leading points. Certainly nothing that would have encouraged them to actually lead.

Alexandra "Sasha" Serebrennikova|Christian Ciech|Corinna Schwiegershausen|Davide Guiducci|Dragonfly|Filippo Oppici|Gordon Rigg|Jon "Jonny" Durand jnr|Mitchell "Mitch" Shipley|Moyes Litespeed RX|Paris Williams|Pre-Worlds 2014|Suan Selenati|Tullio Gervasoni|Wills Wing|Wills Wing T2C|Zac Majors

Dennis and Efren flew in Efren's Dragonfly to goal. They stated that everyone seemed to be really enjoying themselves. Antoine reported the strongest thermal that he had ever been in at 7 meters/second. Smooth.

The landing field was a grass air strip in a large grass filled valley. The task committee made a task that had landing fields in it all the way from the last turnpoint to goal, 15 km.

So maybe everyone will have a better attitude toward the flying here even with the higher level of turbulence today. It seems to be centered in the area of the launch.

Task 6 (Zac beat everyone by ten minutes):

2013 Flytec Race of Champions

Who cares about cu's?

http://flytecraceandrally.wordpress.com/2013/03/10/race-of-champions/

Saturday was a day that the weather guy could feel pretty confident about predicting the day's future. There was a high pressure centered just to the west. The air was very dry over 5,000' and there was a very strong inversion, therefore no cu's. There were scattered cirrus clouds that could reduce the projected lift but they were widely spaced. The wind was out of the east at 7 mph, supposed to rise to 9 mph, then back off (as the high moved east) to 2 mph by 6 PM, and stay that way through all of Sunday.

It looked like we could get to a little over 5,000' with the inversion starting just below that. The surface temperature was supposed to be quite a bit cooler than the 90 degrees from the two days before, down to 82. All and all a day with light winds, low top of the lift, no cu's. And that's how it turned out.

There are twenty two or so of us here for the competition pilot's competition. We were ready to fly after a day of rest after a long flight. We are paired up (me with Richard Lovelace) for the race for the money (only the slowest pilot counts for the team score), so the idea is to help your teammate (if your radio continued to work) if you want the bucks. There is $5,000 on the line.

The task was an out return of only 75 kilometers to the south. There was a move to shorten the 97 kilometer task to this one as there was a concern (misplaced) because of the lack of clouds, which was adopted. The task was cross wind on both legs, but the winds were supposed to die down.

The launch started at 1:30 PM to get us flying in the heart of the day on a short task. The race start was set for 2:30 PM and everyone was in the air by 2:05 PM. Plenty of time for everyone to make the race start at the edge of the 5 km start cylinder. I pinned off at 1,200' AGL in light lift and waited for others to come around to show me the good stuff.

We were soon all bunched up near the top of the lift at about 4,000' AGL. The inversion layer was obvious when you looked out at the horizon. It looked like almost everyone would start together. The wind was four mph out of the east southeast.

Just before we started I spotted a sail plane way below us heading south along our course line. This plane would soon mark our first thermal. It's Saturday and the boys are out to play.

We hung together using each other to find the lift. It was a race start and as we were climbing in the start cylinder so there was no need to rush out in front as all our competitors were right there with us. We started four minutes after the window opened.

Pilots had to be concerned both about their teammate and about how they were doing. Our radios failed right away with someone's radio going on continuous transmit. We were sharing our frequency with Larry Bunner and Matt Barker. Richard had been up near me but I lost track of him right away. He turned off his radio when there was a continuous transmission of static.

Coming over the sailplane we found almost 300 fpm on average and the day was on. We were above 2,000' AGL and climbing well. The next thermal was nearby and I was at the top just below Christian when we made a couple of useless turns as no one else was willing to go out in front. So I did, which usually causes me problems but didn't in this case.

The next thermal was over 300 fpm and we climbed to over 4,600' AGL. There were ten to fifteen pilots nearby or in the same thermal. The pilots were showing each other were to find the best lift.

We went on glide with Zippy off to east, in front and getting low. I was out in front with Christian with Larry and Matt nearby. We found a little something but Zippy hooked better lift and we went over to him to find 300+ fpm to 4,300' AGL.

Zippy headed out in front again and got lower and lower as he headed for the turnpoint. I spotted the dust devil that he was heading for but it didn't produce any lift. I was soon high above where the dust devil had been as he kept going getting very low near the turnpoint and having to hang in zero sink. It took him forever to climb out of there.

The rest of us stayed over 2,000' and found 300+ fpm as we took the turn and headed back toward the airfield. The lift kept improving and there were still at least ten of us hanging together and trading the lead. A third of the way back we found 500 fpm.

We were cooking at that point and the race speed increased. We stayed over 4000' AGL and kept finding lift together. We were a bit fewer than ten by this point but Larry and Matt were right with me. I hadn't seen Richard.

At eighteen kilometers out we went on what looked like it might be final glide at 13:1. We had a quartering tail wind of six mph which we hadn't expected. We were flipping back and forth between the various pilots as we found lines working or not.

I stopped for 500' to 2,500' at 10 kilometers out wanting to make sure I came over the trees before the airfield high enough. I came into goal at 275' AGL. 

I got on the radio to Richard after I landed and he was not too far out and soon came in.

2013 Flytec Americus Cup

Day 5, the real task 2

André Wolfe|André Wolfe|Christian Ciech|Davide Guiducci|Dustin Martin|Flytec Americus Cup 2013|Greg Dinauer|Jon "Jonny" Durand jnr|Jon Durand jnr|Larry Bunner|weather

Finally we get a chance to have a weather forecast that has some connection with reality. It looked like a good day with light winds, moderate lift, and a reasonably high cloud base. The cu's started early so it was a bit worrying with the chance of OD.

Larry Bunner wanted a 150 km task, but I felt that was too long for the Georgia conditions. Fine for Texas in August, but not Georgia in May. The task distance was 160 km, but I extended the first turnpoint radius to 15 km which brought it down to a nice compromise at 132 km. A triangular task to the southwest.

We started launching at 12:40 with a 2 PM start time with two additional clocks 20 minutes apart. Larry was reporting 4,200' MSL with two lift at the end of the runway. There were clouds every where and the lift was plentiful. I was soon climbing up the sides of the cu's to 4,700', three hundred over cloud base as we waited for the first start.

There was numerous spots for lift around Americus and near the edge of the 5 km start cylinder and pilots were spread out and not getting in each other's way. It took a while for the start to open and the lift got a bit spottier so we weren't quite as high when it opened but headed out anyway.

We hadn't gone 1 km before we hit 500 fpm to cloudbase. I was with Jonny, Christian, Davide, Matt Barker and others. What I didn't realize is that Christian and Davide headed back for the next clock. Jonny and the rest of us ploughed ahead toward all the great looking cu's ahead.

We raced from cloud to cloud but the lift wasn't nearly as great as it was on that first thermal. Finally we got over a set of small smoldering fires and found 400 fpm back to cloud base.

The next thermal was only 146 fpm and after a few turns I headed out in front even though I was a bit lower than the four or five other pilots. I found broken 113 fpm and made the mistake of not staying with it. Leaving at 2,200' proved to be a big mistake and though there were plenty of cu's ahead I wasn't able to find the lift under them.

Christian and Davide took the next clock at 2:20 PM and instead of following the cu's that we followed to the left of course line went along the course line or a little to the right. Jonny was the first pilot into goal but the Italian came in five minutes behind after starting twenty minutes later. Zac and Dustin also came in early. Then a good number of pilots dribbled in.

2013 Flytec Americus Cup

The super great first day and task

André Wolfe|André Wolfe|Belinda Boulter|Christian Ciech|Davide Guiducci|Davis Straub|Dustin Martin|Filippo Oppici|Flytec Americus Cup 2013|Greg Dinauer|Jon "Jonny" Durand jnr|Jon Durand jnr|sailplane|weather

The task committee (this morning Jonny and Zac with me as the task committee wrangler and weather prognosticator) called a great dogleg task of 111 km to the north northeast to the south edge of the Atlanta airspace (bottom was 10,000' there, so no way would we break it). The goal was a farm house and field with no visible grass runway despite its designation on the sailplane lists that I used to create our waypoints. Zac left a message with the land owner, which turned out to be a great idea as he called the local Barnsville newspaper and there was a reporter there to greet us.

There was a stray north south ridge of clouds over the field just before we were to open the launch for the Sport Class (who had a 50 km task to Beckley, paralleling our first leg) so we pushed back everything half an hour so they opened launch at 1 PM (for Sport, 1:15 for open) with a 2:30 PM task start time (Sport Class have open start times). I rechecked the satellite loop and it showed the ridge dissipating and cu's forming behind it, which we could also see from the ground.

Launch was ordered launch by luck of the draw on this first day, and, of course, we didn't know just how efficient the launch procedures would be, so eight pilots, including myself, with higher numbers, volunteered for the ten spaces in the early bird launch. Before it opened I moved back to my 44th launch spot. I just felt that there was no need to wear myself out before the start window opened.

So to wear myself out I jumped in with the launch crew that included Belinda and Kendrick, both drivers, with a self interest in making sure things went smoothly and quickly. The launch crew was fabulous and the tugs were zipping right along. The hang glider pilots weren't as prepared as we would like when they got to the front of the line, but the crew started hustling them along getting them ready back a few slots. We only had a few planes waiting every now and then. I hustled carts with Kendrick and we got pilots on them quickly and in line on the main runway of the airport.

I ran over to my glider just in time to get suited up and in line. I was pulled into the air at 2:00 PM, half an hour before the first start window and I had Bobby drag me to 2,100' AGL as we hadn't really hit any lift above 100 fpm until then. I pinned off in lift that averaged 77 fpm as I climbed slowly out to 4,400' AGL and drifted downwind toward the edge of the start cylinder 10 km out.

The wind speed was perfect, not too strong. The lift was perfect, not too strong or turbulent. Lots of pilots came and joined me and we all just hung in zero lift near cloud base drifting at just the right speed toward the edge of the cylinder, toward the bottom of the clouds and toward the start window open time. I crossed the 10 km radius thirty seconds after the window opened at cloud base at 4,600' AGL. There were twenty pilots in the vicinity.

The sky was full of cu's and there were plenty on the course line to the north northeast to the turnpoint 60 km from the edge of the start cylinder. I was high and racing, staying with a couple of other nearby pilots and heading for the darkness cloud ahead. When I got there I found 800 fpm and it was smooth and what a difference from the day before. Thursday the lift averaged well below 200 fpm and there were no cu's. This lift averaged 500 fpm and it gave me a big jump on a lot of other pilots leaving most of the crew behind.

I raced to the west side of the course line toward the better looking cu's and was soon on my own. I wasn't sure that being almost 3 km off the course line was the best idea when no one came with me, but the streets looked a lot thicker in that area.

It seemed to have been the right move as I found good lift (but never again as good as that first thermal) and a bunch of pilots came in under me from the direction of the course line 15 km out from the turnpoint. I left them behind as Dustin way below me continued forging ahead and I followed from a few thousand feet over his head. I had seen him earlier in his new green glider stay along the course line.

I found lift to his right as I saw that he was not getting anything and he came back to join me and a few other pilots from behind that came into the good area. He was way low and the lift was much better higher up.

The next jump to the turnpoint proved to be a bit of a mixed bag but Larry Bunner and I with another pilot (Ricker?) found good lift (300 fpm) to the southeast of it and got back to 4,400' with Larry four or five hundred feet below me. I was out leading once again and wondering if there was anyone in front of me. Very early on I had spotted someone who looked like they had jumped the gun, but since then other than Dustin way down low I hadn't spotted any one.

Seven kilometers to the north I found 410 fpm on average and that got me to 5,300' while Larry was working it way below me. At this point I hooked up with Matt Barker and Jonny Durand and we went on glide 31 kilometers from the two kilometer goal cylinder. It wasn't a final glide but there were plenty of cu's ahead.

I was taking the middle just behind Matt on my right and Jonny on my left. A little above them and using them to bird dog the lift ahead. Jonny took a big turn to the left and I hung with Matt staying on the course line. At 15 kilometers out I was down to 2,300' AGL and it looked like Matt getting nothing ahead of me. I felt a bit of lift to my left and came under Jonny who had had a better line.

Larry had pushed ahead but was low and went for the tree line three kilometers ahead. Matt and Jonny found it there but I didn't see them and stuck with the 200 fpm I was in. I saw three gliders fly over me coming from behind, oh well. Larry didn't get the lift under Matt and Jonny.

I climbed up and got way too high after seeing Larry land. I came upon Ricker and we had a few turns up high before going on glide. I realized I was way too high and stuffed the bar getting up to 72 mph over the ground to goal.

There was way more lift in the last fifteen kilometers than we had hit all along the course line. In spite of stuffing the bar it was hard to get down. We had planned to have pilots land in a big field two kilometers away from the goal point as we hadn't been able to contact the land owner directly, but pilots were landing there anyway.

It was a nice field but a little cross to the wind. There was really no wind on the ground after we saw 13 mph out of the south up high.

The land owner came out and was happy to see us and took lots of pictures. Unfortunately later he collapsed and we had to call in the medics. I haven't heard how he was doing. Too much excitement I guess.

Forty pilots must have made goal, which is a great thing on the first day. Gets everyone excited. Larry landed fourteen kilometers from goal and I didn't see Zac, but maybe I missed him. Dustin was way late after getting low.

I did the task in an hour and fifty minutes, about the same time it took to do the 70 kilometer task on Thursday. The conditions (lift) were obviously much better. We had a little stronger wind also.

Thirty percent chance of rain after 2 PM on Saturday.

2013 Worlds

Getting going.

Davide Guiducci

Hottest day ever in Australia here. Interactive map here.

It was a bit windy in the tow paddock today but there were plenty of periods of calm winds at about 14 km/h. Often we had 22 to 25 km/h. The airport records are quite a bit stronger than what I was measuring next to the launching pilots. Many had no problem with 22 to 25 km/h. Some needed 14 to 15 km/h.

Seppi Salvenmoser was acting like a little child throwing a tantrum, complaining about having to wait so long in the air and then he bombed out. Complaining about the strong wind when I was telling him it was 14 km/h. I think it was because he had a little scrape on his leg.

Our limit is 40 km/h with 16 km/h gust. That's why we weren't out at the tow paddock yesterday.

Watching the race at 6 PM (7 AM UTC) and I see that Christian Ciech, Jonny, and Alex are close to goal.

Looks like the winds will be lighter the next few days and the heat will return. It was quite cool this morning and very pleasant in the launching paddock.

We shared the launch area with fire fighting planes flying out of Forbes airport. We were taking off from Bill's paddock just to the north and the fire fighters were happy to share the area with us.

There are fires every where in Australia right now (even near Stanwell) and we were expecting fire fighting at the goal airfield.

Yet another weak day with wind

Alessandro "Alex" Ploner|Corinna Schwiegershausen|Davide Guiducci|Primoz Gricar

http://klemencicmatjaz.blogspot.com

Task 4, 71km

Today they told us already in the morning that wind will be stronger today. On take off it looked like less wind and really slow thermals if some. Our Franc was in line the first to go in this bad air so he waited for a push which we have every day from one of the Austria team.

They had big problems to climb up and next interval was even worse and many bombed out. I got lucky with a thermal. Today I put out a bit of led and suddenly I was climbing much better than previous days in this week conditions.

Day was better then yesterday afterwards with better climbs and I was on my way with leading gaggle.

I went bellow Chiech to find a climb that he had but got only some bubbles left bellow so we where all slowly drifting away from the course line. I tried to go back but N wind was just too strong.

Alan and Primoz made it to the goal.

The whole competition is more like gamble with take off conditions and of course huge portion of luck on the course. Interesting but not satisfying.

Another weak day

http://klemencicmatjaz.blogspot.com

52km too much. Well not for eight pilots, that is the news for now. Organisers wanted to give us a goal day but it ended up with drifting over the flats at low altitudes. Nurve game again and one wrong turn and you where on the ground.

http://corinnaflies.blogspot.de

Today eight pilots made goal, Alex won the day, probably followed by Pedro, Davide, Suan, Roland, me, Tullio and Dan. Yes, I got into goal, I've reached my personal goal: fly safe and score for the team at least once!
