CIM - Coppa Internazionale del Mediterraneo - 2018

Rieti, Italy,   1 August 2018 – 12 August 2018

6 agosto

8pm - Very difficult landings today with strong south west wind and heavy rain from 5pm to 6pm, not preview. But meteo was as expected with good conditions and quite right task. As two pilots wrote to the Contest Director: "Dear Aldo, the task has been really exciting and interesting. Good job!"

Ore 12- Al briefing delle 10,30 sono stati premiati i vincitori di ieri dove magistralmente Franco Poletti in classe Mixed 15m ha battuto tutti col suo standard Discus b! Ieri sera a cena era incredulo per la sua ottima performance e ci ha detto: “Ma io sono andato adagio…!”. Inoltre abbiamo cantato gli auguri a Giorgio Marchisio che oggi fa il compleanno, altra colonna del volo a vela italiano!  La meteo che ha presentato Ezio sembra ben promettere: le basi saranno tra i 2000 a Rieti e 2900m verso Arezzo e a nord della Val Topina. Venti deboli soffieranno da est-sud/est. Le termiche saranno regolari con valori compresi tra i 2 e 4m/s, ma con difficoltà di distacco da terra per scarsità di vento e per lo stesso motivo le brezze saranno poco attive.

12 am -At the 10.30 briefing yesterday's winners were awarded: Franco Poletti was the best in the Mixed 15m class with his Discus b standard! Last night at dinner he was incredulous for his excellent performance and he told us: "But I was so slowly ...!". We also sang happy birthday to Giorgio Marchisio, another “column” of the Italian gliding! Meteo forecast: cumulus bases will be between 2000 in Rieti and 2900m towards Arezzo and north of Val Topina. Weak winds will blow from east-south/east. Thermals will be regular with values between 2 and 4m / s, but with difficulty of detachment from the ground due to no wind and for the same reason the breezes will be not very active.
