Pre-Worlds Day 7: cancelled for rain



We went to Gubbio yesterday for a tourist day, to look at some of our turnpoints of two years ago. It is a nice ridge that usually works fine, with really good landing fields around, but now it is in the restricted airspace, so we can´t use it this year.
there were spectacular storms in the afternoon and this morning, with some beautiful rainbows inbetween, and now it is one wave of rain moving through after the other. with low clouds and and cold air. It feels a bit like autumn already. The day was cancelled at the first briefing this morning and gives us more time to explore this unique area. Tomorrow, the day after the frontal zone, looks like the best day of the whole week, so we will have a last, big task to fly which makes the end of the comp interesting.
