Take off started as planned. Now the first four gliders are in the air.
2008-09-09 12:03:59
The first launch have been confirmed at 12:15 just recently.
2008-09-09 12:02:15
We have sent sniffer to the air some 30 minutes before the intended take offs and their first announcement was very nice to hear: Climbs up to 3m/s and current Cu clouds base is at 1500m above sea level. This is definitly very good message for all of us. Despite this fast the directors decided to postpone the launch by 15 minutes to 12:15. The intention was to avoid rush for pilots before the task.

The briefing just finished. The task have been set. The course is to North East and afetr turning three turn poins return back to Nitra along high energy Tribec mountains. This can allow high speed arrivals during the afternoon. The first launch is set to 12:00 with possible little delay.

Good morning. We have nice clear sky here and the activity at the airport already started. The preparations for the briefing are ongoing and we are optimistic with regard to weather today. We are under influence of the high pressure area moving slightly east. The task setters are bussy by task preparation. There are some fog areas in the Martin mountain valley so they have decided not to set it there. The lenght is little more that 260km. The briefing is at 10:00.
