It was very nice competition in surroundings of beautiful landscape of San Marino. The atmosphere was very nice and friendly. Organizers did a great job, also the Saturday dinner was great! The new P13 and F13 schedules are very nice and challenging. I enjoyed to watch best Italian pilots mastering them very well. It seems that new schedules are flown very nicely with co-axial propulsion units (almost half of the pilots had it), although second place took the pilot with single propeller – Marco Mazzucchelli, junior World champion. Sebastiano Silvestri presented his new Mythos with co-axial drive very well and won the competition with his beautiful unique flying style. Mythos is successor of the proven design Wind S Pro and seems to be adopted for the new schedules. My friend Hannes Schenk flew very well and finished on 3rd position with Wind S Pro with co-axial drive. Congratulations! Hannes helped me very much in the competition; he was my caller and gave me advices to improve my flying. He is well deserved for my quite good result and improvement of flying in comparison to last year. Unique out-of-the-box model named Progress 3 from Peter Haase caught my attention. It has enormous moveable SFGs, two rudders and even impeller in the fuselage with inner rudder (for stall turns). I hope to manage to join also the next edition of this wonderful event!
