7.00 The last day and the weather forecast is similar to yesterday's, in which case we will complete everything well before the Air Show planned today for 16.15 - 16.50.

 

The mixture of 'other' events choreographed during the DIPC makes it a real spectator show and certainly brings in the crowds.  The majority take place beside the competition and creates an exciting atmosphere on the Drop Zone. 

Today we will complete round 8 of the Accuracy Landing which will give us a Team Result in both the Male/Mixed Team event and the Female Team event.  At the end of Round 7 CHINA is in first place with a total of 19 cents - RUSSIA and SLOVENIA tie for second with a total of 21 cents with CHINA J in 4th place on 23 cents - anything could happen.   The competition is not so close in the Female Team event with BELARUS F 8 cents ahead of RUSSIA F and then a 6 cents difference between them and CHINA F.
