Task 3

Àger - Arèn - Benavent de Tremp - Calaf

Final results are not ready yet, but approximately 45 pilots in goal!!! A couple landed very very short (5 to 15mts) and some other were some kms short....
They had to fly with head wind the last leg, WELL DONE everyone!!!

Gerolf Heinrichs (AUT) came in first; the question is: Will he win the day?
When asked how was the flight, he said:
"It was easy for me [wink] ! Those that I cannot catch on the climb, I catch on glide; and those that I don't catch on glide, I catch on climb!! You've got to have the package [smiling] !"

David Matthews (GBR) landing at goal short before deadline (8:30pm)

Task and safety committees discussing the task

Blay Olmos' opinion (Spanish team) about the task:
"The first part (TP1-TP3) is a bit easier, the last part to Calaf may be a bit more difficult because there will be some W wind kicking in. There is a very high level in this competition, and it could be an easy task. Probably we will more than 50 pilots in goal!"

Carol Tobler (SUI) getting some information from Blay Olmos
