Swiss League Open 2010

Monday we fly at Reconvilier. Turnpoints at Download-Section

Martin Scheel, 3. April 2010
There is too much crowd at "Matzendorf" take of area. We change to "Montoz". Meeting Point: 10:00 at Reconvilier, at the "tennis club l' orval": http://map.search.ch/reconvilier/vie-des-crets (a little bit south of the marked position, see map in the attachment) Free Coffe and croissant. Weather: NW-Wind, weakening almost down to zero, good thermals, but clouds at midday. Its possible, that the clouds spread out at 2500m, but at least later it should get good. Take off: There are take - off sites towards south and northwest. Turn-Points: In our Download section you find a zip file with a map and the wpt. Lets hope for a good day... Martin ******************************** Analysis from Friday: Even in the morning the weather reports predicted a high cloud coverage. The "hanglider-report" did basically say, that no usable thermals will be. In fact, this high cloud coverage disappeared completely during the morning. As the sun could heat with 100%, the thermals where good enough to fly in some parts: - Fanas: Week thermals from 13:00 on. Strange to fly, but the best pilot managed to fly 100km. But Fanas we could not go for only one day. - Grindelwald: Similar situation. A task would have been possible. - Interlaken: Chrigel had a "Regio-Training" with 20 Pilots. No-one could go higher as 200m above the take-off site. A task would have been stupid. In short: We should have gone to Grindelwald...
Swiss League Open 2010

Friday to Sunday canceled. Saturday evening Info for Monday.

Martin Scheel, 1. April 2010
I am very sorry... but: - at Grindelwald is 10 cm snow - tomorrow probably 40% cloud coverage from a warm-front coming + very unstable We (Urs Dubach, Chrigel Maurer) are afraid, that there is not enough sun to make the trees dry. We all believe, that the chance for a task is 50%. This is not enough for one day only. In Prättigau the weather is a little bit better. But we can not make everybody coming to the far end of switzerland for one day. In Jura is too much wind and in the West are more clouds predicted... We do "Regio"-Training at Interlaken and Prättigau. Pls. register at Chrigel (+41787107908) or Martin (+41794455163) with an SMS in order to organize the transport to the take off. Next info about Monday: Saturday evening. Jura, Gstaad or Interlaken. Best wishes, Martin __________________________________________________ Notes: Im Norden: am Karfreitag nach frostigem Morgen teilweise sonnig und trocken, in den inneren Alpen ziemlich sonnig.
