It has been raining without stop for more than 30 hours - there are new waterfalls gushing from the mountains and mudslides in the local area. The ducks in the landing field are now in row-boats!
We all have far too much time on our hands. The organisation have arranged touristic visits to Salzburg, Hangar 7, salt mines, ice caves, Aqua-Salza spa....today we can hike to the waterfalls and/or play gps hide & seek; its called Geocaching
The hungarian team have been out & about with their team mascot: Yell Oo

A great party last night in the tent - Lots of food, lots of drinking and just a little too much dancing. I can't walk today my knee has said 'enough is enough'. Hopefully I can persuade Johannes to come back to help me....
After meeting with Petra and Karel this morning we have realised thats its not the dancing and drinking that is the problem - the problem is sleeping!
We all went to our beds feeling great and woke up feeling really bad - thats all the proof I need that sleeping is just not good for you! ;-)

Tomorrow we hope ( fingers, toes and other crossable bits crossed ) that we will be able to fly. Its still touch & go as to whether it will be taskable but at least being able to get some air in our wings will make a much happier.
Saturday is looking good so its going to be mayhem - the top 60 pilots are only seperated by 150 points so pressure to throw caution to the wind in an attempt to win will be massive. A competition like this will unlikely produce the same winner that a big number of tasks does but you can be sure that the boys here are ready to press the acelerator to the max for the title of European Champion.
Speedbar pulleys will be smoking as these guys race for the line!
