The French love wine, cheese and official ceremonies. Last week the local club had an official opening ceremony for their new gliding simulator. The ceremony lasted all morning and the club was full of local and regional dignitaries.
Today is the official opening ceremony of the 7th FAI Women World Gliding championship, Issoudun, France, to give the event its full name. There will be lots of speeches (in French of course..), flag waving and ribbon cutting. Oh and there is a huge air display planned, paid for by the French military. Pictures to follow.
tomorrow is the first competition day and the weather looks very good for the rest of the week.
