Wind speed and direction should also be okay. This year we have the possibility to go up with cable car to Aineck in case of northern wind and Speiereck in case of southern wind. Thats why we decided that the competition will take place this weekend!

Many of you are coming from far away and want to fly in our region before the competition. From tomorrow on the wind speed will be okay. On Tuesday you will have to go up with cable car to Aineck. For our wind stations please look at www.dfc-lungau.com
