How To Bind Orio Cookie

Geburtstagfeier 100 Jahre Spälti

HAPPY BIRTHDAY - love Babs and Jürg Spälti to 100 years!

On 28 June it was so far and Babs and Jürg invited to the birthday celebration of the 100th anniversary of their company, Spälti AG.

Very happy arrived Deflo, Pfuschi, Phibes, Sergio and I love the invitation to visit and were guests of the super-organized event in Laupen.

At 17:00 dasAbendprogramm clock started and soon we could start with our Spälti Omegas from Scheidegg and land right in front of the large marquee on the football field (no allusions to the Stubaicup! ;-)) Before it.

In the marquee will have an excellent dinner and the highlight there was the appearance of the two Cabarettisten of Cabaret Duo Divertimento (-> www.cabaret-divertimento.ch/) which is a firework of gags and jokes for us exhibitions.

Here again many thanks for the wonderful evening at Babs and Jürg and again congratulations on 100 years of your entire Spälti Omega 7 Team!

Here a few impressions:

Glory Hole In Stockport

Int. Alpen Open 2008 in Innsbruck

The weather can do to clear remaining ... föhnig , changeable, unstable, according to ... gewitterig formulations which a pilot in connection with the weather forecast for race weekend does not like to read.

And the start was then equal to the first Gechancelt days. Friday due to the strong foehn no task.

was to be expected, are thus most of the pilots first arrived on Saturday in the morning. To a prompt briefing was thus obviously not the question. But never mind, now is the mans anyway you get used to such events bring plenty of patience must.

Despite many clouds the driveway was lined up to Seegrube. The weatherman told us then at the briefing that we have expected from about 15:00 clock with over-development. The tender was a short Task 37.6 km of the clock was sharply from 12:45. 53 pilots made their way east along the northern range. Despite the many clouds were flying fast and it went better than expected. Fastest Schalber Alex was 53 minutes. But every 5 Spälti managed Omegas there that day to the finish!

laughed Sunday is already in the morning the sun from the sky and everything lies hope for a good day. It also saw the task setter so and wrote a task to 89.4 km ... east again until Sonnwendjochhaus in Rofan and back again. But this time the clock 12:15 influx was allowed in the start cylinder and opens the race with it. But despite the good relations the task was not without it. Some pilots have already missed the start to connect and only a few kilometers later, many pilots had a construction site and to fight to regain altitude. This time there was only enough for 3 Spälti drivers to the finish - but they have shown for what is in the Omega :-)
