Season start for me...

Today was the first day of the first aerobatic camp. Or it was supposed to be. Weather seriously sucked the whole day. Spent most of the day indoors, but spent it good. Checked one free program, read the rules and finally got out and built half of the box with a bunch of people. It took less than an hour to set up 4 first box marks. We'll (they'll) continue tomorrow, then check the places from air and do the final adjustments. The trick is, the box is slightly (app, 500m) in a different place than last year. To enable better (and 2 other) judging positions.

It was delightful to return to Oripää after the winter. The new hangar is up and *HUGE*. There is already 6 planes in (2 Christen Eagles, 2 Pipers, 1 Ultimate and 1 Pitts), and there is still a lot of space!

Sorry about the photo, it is taken with my phone but you'll get the idea.... 

Several people has already arrived, and first glider just drove here, SZD-59 Acro. Two YAKs has been "on hold in Lahti, there is complete CAVOK over there... But, now it looks like there is a chance, the clouds are climbing up so we'll see. 

I need to go back to home for one night, my kid has an English test tomorrow at school, but we'll be back tomorrow afternoon and hopefully catch an airfield full of action! I sure need the practice on judging, next weekend I'll be judging at UK glider nationals in Saltby. This is a great opportunity for me to start the "judging carreer".  And will be great to see familiar faces!
