Monday 23.5.2011 – rainy day

No picures from today

I came back to Nummela early in the morning with Olli Teronen, I had to leave my car to Markku. In the morning I had a look of the weather satellite images and it was quite obvious that this day will be resting day. It started to rain during the briefing, had a short pause and then continued until the evening. So it wasn’t flying day at all.

Visa-Matti drove us (Melissa, Roland and me) to visit Räyskälä, but it was as depressing as all the other gliding fields are during the rain. Nobody but only sad looking planes waiting for better weather.

This day was also about computer problems, first I tried to fix a small thing on the competition website, but made a mistake and ended up fixing the mistake for an hour or so. I had my laptop with me in Räyskälä, but somehow it had switched on in my bag and it was piping hot when I opened it. Luckily nothing was damaged even it first looked like I have to take this to the maintenance. Now I have backup computer with me.

In the evening we had dinner here in Air Hotel and had a walk with Melissa, Kimmo and Antti (Koskiniemi) around the airfield and saw the facilities. We started planning some program for coming evenings, but it might not get into action.
