Tower @ Twente!  Monday      Mai 17 2010           ritzdeluy@hotmail.com

Out of 4 days we did fly 2 now. Yesterday was a super day and in retrospect, [easy] the task could have been longer! Only 2 out landings , a pity for both pilots! You can find the scores on live scoring on the NKsite www.nkzweefvliegen.nl and on www.soaringspot.com
We saw great finishes and  many straight in’s as the wind was tough and the situation very bumpy. Today is overcast but ….it should be better in nthe afternoon, so we just wait and see. Part of Holland is not only covered by clouds but also by “THE ASH_CLOUD” yes the vulcano is still active and with our NW wind the ash is back here.

The Belgium friends finished their competition and on the last super-weather-day, their scores were really mixed up. See for the final results; soaringspot.

The French Nationals in Vinon sur Verdon from May 15 -22 with 58 compititors in 3 classes have had 2 days now and the level of pilots flying there is specially in open class very high. Kilian Walbrou , is on top after 2 days, winning day 1 [410 km] and being runner up on day 3 over 362 km.
 In standard class Christophe Cousseau won 2 days and several outlandings took place in this class during both days!
In 15 m Christophe Ruch is on top at this stage!

No flying day here, cancelled after the combi class was launched.Overdevelopment is the reason.

Cheers Ritz
