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
