Still lots of preparation to wrap up today... On my way to Tesco (the local Walmart) to find a pump to fix my tire... Blair, who arrived yesterday, should take over the news dispatch today as soon as we finish setting up the base station.

5 of the 6 Team pilots, plus Dick Mockler our Captain and his assistant (devoted grand-daughter) Blair, have arrived in Prievidza and are fine-tuning gliders and ground logistics. The last pilot, Ryszard, is expected to fly in tomorrow from Zar, just across the border in Poland, where he is getting his glider from. The weather has been steadily improving since we arrived, so Ryszard may actually make it in easily without a practice landout...
