Friday 20.5.2011 – Arriving to Nummela

It’s Friday 20.5. and I am at the competition office in Nummela. Last autumn Visa-Matti (the competition director) asked me to do the website for QSGP, just a simple site which would be the place for the competition information. At that point I didn’t know that I would be needed in the actual competition as well.

In wintertime Visa-Matti started asking me when I am planning to come to Nummela for the competition, like it would have been obvious that I will work at the competition as well. So after having fun at Nitra and Vesis, it’s again time to do the real job as a webmaster/photographer.

It is afternoon and 5 pilots have arrived already, there are some routines like registration and technical inspections going on before they are free to go practicing.

Tomorrow is a training day, briefing will be at 10:00 and we will see how things are going compared to the normal gliding competition. I am waiting for those short tasks, and excitement of following who will be the first pilot to finish – would it be like Formula 1 on sky?
