The last day and the last flight is comin at ya! We postponed the first launch a few times, but in the end, they are flying up and down the AAT task for 2 hours...
I don't even know how fast the time is going. Is it seriously the last day of the competition tomorrow?! I cannot imagine my days without eating rice every single day for lunch. My wild...
I feel like using CTRL+C and CTRL+V would help me to write this article as there are not so many significant differences comparing today's and yesterday's task+weather. The weather is not ideal for flying but...
What a day! No one wanted to leave the airport, either because they like us so much or because of the darker clouds blocking the way. Either or I still got so many superlatives out...
Post international evening morning is a bit more difficult than expected. But we have zero regrets of mixing the food and all kinds of alcohol. I did my research for you and asked participants the...
I am going to summerise it for you. The pilots can look forward to a similar day like yesterday. Though I am sure, the experience is going to be different even though everything I have...
I know I should be speaking about flying, but it's international evening tomorrow, so let's talk about the food first. So far I know we can look forward to German beer and Czech beer (good...
The weather remains the same, just with small changes. Because of the slightly worse conditions in the western parts of Slovakia and Orava area, the tasks are set more around the airfield area. All in...
This Monday was somehow really long, task-wise. But don't get me wrong, it was long and amazing! The pilots used so many superlatives to describe today's tasks. I don't even know where to start. Fantastic,...
The weather is back, are you ready?! After yesterday's struggle with the showers, we have once again our usual excellent weather. Of course, the task setter went all in and prepared the task with the length...
I hope you all enjoyed the Slovak evening yesterday and it wasn't too hard to get out of bed this morning. You ate amazing 400 portions of halušky yesterday! I hope your digestion is still...
Even though we have the Sunday-Funday today, the resting is over so back to work! The weather is slowly coming back to the normal. That's why we have a short, two hours AAT task for...
Today got cancelled due to unfriendly weather. We postponed the first launch 3x, but unfortunately, the variant B(eer) got approved, and the start got cancelled. We quickly figured out a replacement of the program, and...
- Tomorrow is a day off. We expect showers, thunderstorms and non-flyable weather. There will be no Briefing tomorrow as well.- We invite you all to the Slovak evening happening in the hangar tomorrow starting...
As there is not a flyable weather today, I'm sending some tips to relax in the surrounding area. Slovakia is known for a great amount of thermal and healing mineral springs. That's why it's really...
I will share something from behind the scene of today's morning. As you have for sure noticed we couldn't decide if the weather is not flyable/we will let them build the grid so we can...
Guys, we should have a talk about this speed thing. I talked to a few people from the gang that makes this festival of wings cleaning and air hopping (aka EGC) happen and they all...
It's all good, all good.We expect the same lunch as yesterday. Though we are losing hope, the fried cheese will appear again. But I bet we can look forward to rice and some pork with...
Another day another challenge! From what I have asked, some pilots found this day the most tricky so far. The conclusion was pretty clear- the thermals were hiding, and the shadows were intriguing. Even though...
Expressions explaining today's task/weather: "It's going to be different and interesting."Once again it's good weather, everyone is going to fly, and everyone is going to manage as always."But after half an hour of convincing the...
I think it's always so lovely when the weather surprises you. And I think that's today's case! We expected challenging weather, but the weather went easy on us in the end. How nice. Everyone got...
