We have finally arrived in Prievidza, and it is a hive of activity - they say it is the first warm day of the season and we brought the weather with us!
Our apartment is great -we have the top floor of a house in a quiet area just below the Bojnice castle with panoramic views of the Prievidza valley (and the airfield in the foreground - see the photo). It's nice to have lots of space. The owners are very friendly and gave us a tour of the area - they are obviously very proud of their town.
This morning we received an operations briefing from the local airfield officials - and a sneak preview of the 2nd bulletin for the competition - the opening ceremony dinner will be in the Bojnice castle! BS, "our" LS8 is en-route now from Prague and we'll spend the evening installing our instruments before flying tomorrow. There is not normally an operation here during the week so we'll probably have the whole aerodrome to ourselves.
Last night we were entertained by two locally build aircraft, the Dynamic, "dancing" with choreographed music. Quite a sight while we enjoyed a meal at the Aerorest onfield restaurant.
