The Spring Meeting - Friuli Venezia Giulia Trophy, at its 4th edition, is a FAI 2 competition (Hang Gliding class 1, class 5, Sport class) which takes place in a flight zone well known by European pilots. It is also part of the big flying area which have hosted the XXII Hang Gliding World Championship.

The flight area is mainly in the foothill but, depending on weather conditions, it is possible to fly also in the Alps and in the flatland. There are different takeoffs; two of them are in Slovenia and can be chosen in case of changeable weather.

The weather turns

https://airtribune.com/springmeeting-2019/blog__day_5

Pilots are already on takeoff. Weather seems perfect today, so we expect to go in the air early in the afternoon for a consistent task.

Because pilots weren't assigned Flymaster trackers through Airtribune, live tracking on Airtribune doesn't work for this competition. Follow the pilots on the Flymaster web site.

The task has started: https://lt.flymaster.net/bs.php?grp=2636

You can see the Replay from yesterday here: https://airtribune.com/play/4032/2d at the two times faster speed (compared to the Flymaster web site). The Airtribune replay uses the IGC files found here: https://airtribune.com/springmeeting-2019/results. The Airtribune Replay user interface is vastly superior to the Flymaster Playback user interface. It does have a problem with screen clutter on cell phones.

Canary Open, task 4, Macher/La Asomada: 24 km cat's craddle in super light easterly conditions scratching the hills, glide out for the turnpoint to the left, come back again, scratching the hills, glide out to the right, back again. Funny nap-of-the-earth-flying and a lot of VG-work! After 1 hr and 7 turnpoints I made goal with nobody else in and it looked like kinda Manfred Ruhmer style, but then Christian appeared on the horizon from the last turnpoint gliding into goal to complete a happy duet. He now jumped to 2nd place overall, well done my friend.

I sorted things out with the organisation in advance. Oleg apologized for the mess, so did I. The situation in Ukraine was and is not pleasant, he reported also. Everybody should understand.

Oleg Bondarchuck is also taking part in the comp as a kinda revival. He won the first task with Robert Reisinger 2nd. Glad to have these guys back and to fly with them! So it is all about flying now and that is how it should be!

Thought I'd send you a nice shot from the cold to the sunny side.

Yes, there is a higher resolution version.

It's me flying my new Combat L 12 at the Hahnenkamm Downhill Race, last Saturday in Kitzbuehel, Austria. I flew with about 110 km/h through the finish gate of the race course (the gate is 14m wide and 3.2m high) and the crowd, about 45,000 spectators, liked it as much I did.

My nose

Kathleen Rigg <Kathleen.Rigg@btinternet.com> writes:

First of all I'd like to thank everyone in Florida who helped and encouraged me after my nasty nose accident at Quest Air in early April. In particular I'd like to thank "Awesome" Bob, Frank, Drew and Dave Prentice for the excellent first aid and immediate call to the emergency services. I wasn't a pretty sight and they made all the difference to make me feel more comfortable and to speed my trip to the hospital. I'd also like to thank Dean Funk, Bo Hagewood & Kate Diamond for rescuing me from the hospital afterwards and especially Frank and May (owners of the airport at Quest) who very kindly provided full use of their air-conditioned home after the accident.

Following my accident and a few others in Florida this spring there was a lot of talk about coated VS uncoated nose wires amongst the pilots including a poll held at the Wallaby competition to determine the pilot's point of view on the subject. There was a lot of emotional discussion about "banning" uncoated wires following both my accident and Mike Barber's.

However, on further examination of the crash evidence on my glider I can only reach one conclusion about the cause of my serious nose injuries. At first, I thought I had swung across the nose wires with the glider still in a right turn and caught my nose on the 1x19 uncoated wires. But there was major damage to both sides of my nose with much worse damage on the left hand side. On reflection something didn't seem right about the crash analysis.

Then when short packing my glider to come home to the UK, I noticed a serious dent on the underside of the left hand leading edge inches from the nose plates. This had obviously been caused by my helmet hitting the leading edge. Therefore I had actually swung parallel to the nose wires and not across them. I must be the unluckiest person really because I caused the damage to my nose by violently pushing my nose into the apex of the 2 nose wires right up by the swages and the nose catch. A few inches to either side would have probably saved me a lot of trouble.

This is confirmed by the fact that I can only find blood actually on this part of the nose wires and also that I remember feeling my nose hit a solid piece of metal at the time of the crash and actually remember thinking that I had hit the nose plates with my nose (which is of course impossible). This scenario explains the extensive damage which occurred simultaneously down both sides of my nose which I do not believe could have been caused by a single wire cut.

The issue of coated or uncoated really was not relevant to my crash. In fact the swages at the apex of the nose wires are coated in plastic which made no difference to my injuries. I also suspect having a harness with a single suspension point and no rope front to rear did not help as this lack of a restraining rope on my shoulders allowed my head to more easily rotate and slide underneath the leading edge and the nose of the glider. Perhaps with a restraining shoulder rope I would have rotated my head in a more upwards motion towards the keel and missed the wires at the nose of the glider.

I hope the above helps pilots to make a more reasoned decision about the coated/uncoated wire issues. It is also highly possible that Mike Barber's sliced knee accident was caused by the rear of his carbon base bar and not any uncoated wires as an identical injury happened to Seppi Salvenmoser recently. It is important to understand the true causes of accidents and analyse them by considering all the evidence before jumping to conclusions and taking the incorrect decisions about future safety issues. In future I will be flying with a full face helmet with a visor and I now have a really good excuse to have any shape nose I want
