On saturday morning a well known text message reached us a bit after 7am... briefing postponed to 10.30. The weather is still too low, but there are hopes that later in the afternoon we will fly, at least the split program.
As a request, here is some information about the contest organisation and the pilots. The contest director is Pekka Kamppinen. We have three judges present, Otto Ahonen as the scoring chief judge, Jukka Jusslin and Hanna Räihä as normal judges. Pekka Kakko is assisting on the judge line. On the startline is the President of local airclub Hannu Lehtinen and we also have few volunteers here to help. Big thank you for everyone.
We have 11 pilots all together in the contest, 5 in the sportsman and 6 in the intermediate. Since we are flying according the IAC rules, there are no advanced or unlimited pilots.

It is nice to have this many pilots, a few more than previous years. That is easily explained since in Finland there has been glider aerobatics only for few years, I think from 2005. Correct me if I'm wrong. Either way, this has only short history in Finland.
Now just hope for the clouds to disappear.
