a witch…meaning ….Baba Yaga-night!!!
as shared by friends at the WWGC.
After a spooky evening, with witches from several parts of the world , the WWGC starts it’s penultimate day.
After the fun night, NOW the more serious …..last-but-one-day!!!
It started grey however and with the message “no gridding before briefing!!!!”
That’ s what you do not want to read/hear, on such a day!!!

“Looking very gloomy this morning and we don’t expect to fly

AND
As seen by team Germany at 8.45 in the morning

WWGC 2022
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!!!!
