Friday morning - economy

Good morning! It's a beautiful day here in central Poland with the sun shining and the flags sitting quietly by their poles.

There is a briefing at 0800 for today's task of economy - pure duration. Crews were asked to prepare fixed amounts of fuel last night (8kg for single seat, 10kg for dual) and the process of fuelling will take place from approximately 0830 to 1130 before the take-off window of 1230-1330.

The aim of the task is simple - to fly for as long as possible! Crews must land on the deck when finishing but they may run to zero fuel if they are brave.

This is probably the last task. A party of some kind is planned for this evening but we have no details yet. And the flags have just woken up, though they are swaying quietly for now...
