In the news in Andorra....

Day 6 - cancelled

Unforunately the weather forecast was right. We have quite strong winds already from the West, even at ground level. It's all the fault of a cloudy front which is entereing from the West and is carrying rain to the Pyrenees. On top of that there's already a thin layer of cirrus, which will grow during the day. So, with broken hearts, we have to cancel the day.

We would like to thank Ignacio Ruiz Guardiola for providing us with very detailed daily weather reports and also for being sorry that he couldn't have brought better news for us today :) Thank you Ignacio!

27th August - Day 6 - Morning [10:00]

Its windy in Ager this morning and we can't consider setting a task unless it drops.

We were due to have a discussion group with a visiting psycologist last night but is was postponed due to the long retrieve so it has been rescheduled for this morning and we will reassess the wind afterwards (around 11:30).

Task 4 - all back safe and 'mainly' happy!

The overall results have changed considerably after todays task...
Laurie is unfortunately unwell and was unable to fly the task, a few of the high ranked girls jumped the start while some lower ranked girls really got it together and made excellent distances.
Anne-Claire our task winner has told us that it was the best flight of her life! :-)

The task was ambitious, technical and challenging but many pilots told us they really enjoyed pushing themselves through the various conditions and terrain. For some the retrieve was long since we had pilots scattered over the entire task, many of them in improbable or inaccessible places.

Lets see what tomorrow brings....

Day 5 - Task 4 - Update [19:22]

Most of the retrieve is now finished and we are waiting for the last few pilots. Today was a technical task and promised to play havoc with the retrieve (which it has done) but everyone is now reported safe and collected....

We have been mentioning the quality of the wind dummies this week and it's quite ironice that they were the only two in Goal (but then we found out that they didn't take the final turnpoint....how slack is that !!)

Downloads are nearly complete and we will have results out soon - now we just wait for the vehicles to return !
