Results end of Day 2

today, “only” 6 more rounds flown.
several plane crashes unfortunately.
We had to cancel round 7 (ie: round 18 of the competition) after a dozen of pilots as the clouds suddenly arrived, wind turned north and 3 planes had to land down the mountain. Some damage to them.
A little shower came a few minutes later, so stopping the day was the best choice.
tomorrow should be sunny and south wind again, more flights to come.

Day 1 report

Meeting at 9AM with little north wind but forecast was south so we were already at the south slope with the breakfast for every pilot and organizers.

2 rounds flown, one third that could not be validated due to to many reflies and eventually no more wind.

Let’s Get all Ready!!

Let’s get ready, charge your gears, prepare your ballasts.

Meeting will be as announced at 9AM on friday, with registration and end of free flights at 10AM so we can start if wind is also on time.

once again, there is a red light at the tunnel before arriving, so be ready for up to 20minutes of wait if you are very unlucky in front of the stop.

Preparez vous, chargez vos modeles, prenez bien vos ballasts.

Le rendez-vous est confirmé vendredi matin a 9h, avec l’enregistrement et la fin des vols libres a 10h afin de lancer le concours si le vent est bien a l’heure egalement.

Encore une fois, n’oubliez pas qu’il y a un feu rouge au tunnel, preparez vous a jusqu’a 20minutes d’attente si vous n’avez pas de chance devant le stop.

New day…

…. New slope. 5-6 m/s, launching the fifth round on a kew slope facing wind perfectly.
