All gliders are in the air. Now it is time for pilots to fight with the wind and  for the crew to find a way to unfreeze.  

2012-04-08 11:33:59

Starts has just begun. The sky is full of cumulus clouds and it looks good for competing. Check out the webcam. The wind is strong and it is cold outside though.

2012-04-08 11:08:29

Blanik above the airfield reports 1,5 - 2,0 m/s thermal. There is no reason to wait anymore. Starts are confirmed to 11:30. Be ready!

2012-04-08 10:38:10

It is shortly after the briefing and the weather looks even from the ground very satisfying. Pilots received 260 to 311 km long racing tasks. The cold wind is complicating the situation but we believe in our pilots to be able to complete the task;) Launching is planned for 11:30 loc.

2012-04-08 08:21:40

First start is planned for 11:30 so get ready pilots :) Runway in use is 33.
