The complete Aussie team are now here in Piedrahita and ready to do battle. All 3 blokes and 1 sheila have succsesfully passed all the very strict rego requirments. Additional to the team is myself as team leader and general dogsbody. My logistic skills were tested this morning at rego, helping some of the guys with there paperwork, there is so much paperwork and checking to be done it took about 2 hours to complete, then you had to go to another building to have your gear checked. The organisers seemingly had it all under control until the fai guys stepped in, and then the system all fell apart and instead of having your glider/lines, harness and helmet checked they just checked helmets and pilot weights !. All in all, cat 1 rego = organised chaos . Some have gone flying before having to return this evening for a mantatory pilot breifing and opening ceremony.
