Showtime (Brett)

D-Day has dawned with blue skies and the promise of action on day 1.
6:30am day 1
In Kingaroy Steve and I developed the habit of getting to the airfield early to "beat the heat" and to have an uninterrupted run at prepping our gliders without distractions. We have found it works equally well in Leszno with the added bonus of having good water pressure for ballasting. Then back to the apartment for breakfast (& blog writing) before hitting the mayhem that is Leszno airfield.
I had a pretty good day yesterday - 126kph on a 2 hr AAT. John Coutts was happy with 131kph and the Australians seemed pleased with 122kph so I feel as ready as I can be.
So today is the culmination of 18 months preparation, (and support/sacrifice of family and work colleagues).
Bring it on.
