It took a long time before we heard any further action.
But gridding was NOT BEFORE 13.15.
So late starts in a hopefully nice window.
Whatever would happen…..Tasks were set for all classes.
Task 12.out of 12…flying day 5 in club and 7 in standard and 18 m.

club; 105 km....
standard; 121 km….
18 m; 145 km….

But THEN, there was the last message for the day…day cancelled for all classes!!!!
A pity , but it is as it is!
It seems NOBODY was sad about the cancellation.

Hopefully tomorrow ONE MORE DAY!!!!

Cheers Ritz
