The weather did not let us a chance to fly today. So the competition is over, dinner and prize giving are scheduled for this evening. Felix is winning is the second World Cup in row, will go to the Spanish Championship and then switch to acro for another event. What a great accomplishment he has achieved already this year. All thumbs up.
Malgré un ciel totalement bâché ce matin et une prévision de vent forcissant, le Directeur d’Epreuve nous a – une nouvelle fois – sauvé la journée. Nous sommes allés décoller vite fait d’un site en sud pour une manche courte afin de se protéger de l’entrée attendu de NO fort.
Again, the sky was overcast on Celorico and Linhares. But the forecast promised blue skies over Serra da Estrela. So in spite of the increasing NW wind we went to Azinhas, the South take-off, hoping to be able to take-off before the wind beat the breezes. And to avoid any problem at the landing field in the flats due to the wind that was expected to blow stronger in the afternoon, we had a short task to complete.
Panne d’Internet à l’hôtel hier soir, désolé, pas de billet en temps et en heure. De plus nous sommes allés manger du poulpe dans un restaurant assez original de Linhares, ce qui ne nous a pas fait rentrer très tôt non plus.
Sorry for the delay, the Internet connection was dead yesterday evening at the hotel. As foreseen we had a task, and it was a nice flight.
