20 May: It's time again...

and we fly! Again, we distributed AAT's, actually the same task for all classes but with more generous obersvation zones so that the task length ranges from 118.3km to 349.6km. We hope the weather will allow for longer flying. Looks quite OK, right now...

Merged classes: 18m and Open class

Info: Waypoint files (update)

Some pilots asked for the waypoint list in other than SeeYou's cup-format. We recommend using the waypoints of Open 2004 (click on "Files formatted for ..."). This is essentially the same list and we promise to only make use of waypoints that also have been in 2004's list.
