The pilots have now submitted their choice of sequence for the first unknown and all of the pilots have chosen either Sequence D or G, pretty much in equal numbers.
Sequence D was designed by the French team and Sequence G by the Russian team. The organisers hope to be able to start flying the first Unknown this afternoon, but that will depend on how quickly we can get the Free Programmes finished - there are about 15 Free Programme flights still to be completed which will take about three hours. So we hope that the heat from the sunshine will lift the cloudbase soon so that we can start flying again.
The weather forecast for the next few days is for good flyable weather tomorrow (Tuesday), but a high probability of poor unflyable weather on Wednesday and Thursday, with better weather predicted for Friday and Saturday. So its looking possible that we will get through two Unknown sequences which would be excellent.
