Plan for tomorrow: The conditions will be very similar to today concerning thermals, thunderstorms (or the lack thereof). The only change is that the wind may be a little bit stronger. We do not want to risk sitting at Vounetz and not being able to launch. So we move to Grandvillard for the launch.

To make that work, we need your collaboration:
Pick up your live tracker and be ready at the parking lot at 10:00 tomorrow morning, including drinking water and ballast - there is no water at the Grandvillard launch. We will then drive half the field directly to the launch in little buses. The rest of us will take the public bus to the nearest station, where the shuttle will pick us up and also drive us to launch. A little adventure, but this way we will get to fly again. Thank you for helping us make this work.
