Important information in case we move to Jura or Tessin

- We will move only, if the weather looks very, very bad for several days and probably less then 3 tasks will be possible!
- We will move only for one day
- Transport to the meeting point at Jura or Tessin is up to the pilot. There will be enough cars and some buses from the organisation.

Only "C-Pilot" can upload 3 waypoint-files.

All other pilots: It would be good, if you are able to upload the files yourselfe during the evening (announcement of change will be made at 19:00 via SMS and Website).
The race-office will be open for help.
