May the 22rd… All pilots and volunteers met at the morning briefing. Tasks were called and cancelled around 2pm because of a persistent inversion layer making cross country flights from Quest improbable. CIVL takes the opportunity of this forced rest day to congratulate the 74 pilots from 12 nations for their participation in these World Championships. CIVL also thanks the organisers and all the volunteers for staging this so far very successful event. Special thanks to David Glover (Meet Director), Drew Harris (Safety Director), Steve Kroop (Take-off Marshall), Tim Meaney (Score Keeper), Davis Straub (Meteorologist), Bob Bailey (Chief Tug Pilot) and Alexia (Le Cook).
