Disentis Open - www.disentis-open.ch 7 Take Off Area Take Off Gendusas (2182m ASL) The main take off is located next to the “Gendusas” cable car station and the Tipi-Nevada-Bar (with toilets). On normal days, briefing will be at the Tipi-Nevada-Bar right next to the Take Off Site, which will be open for us. Free coffee and croissants for all pilots is a tradition at the Disentis Open - and will also be provided during the Worlds. The powerful cable car (2 sections) is able to transport all pilots within 30 minutes from headquarter to take off.

Experience has shown, that in August, Gendusas take off is suitable for all wind situations if the weather is flyable (this prediction is not valid in spring and early summer time). Wind speed is never a problem. If the wind turns in a wrong way and taking off gets difficult, the flight conditions will be accor- ding. On the carpets up to 50 gliders can be laid out. We will arrange a controlled (carpets) and an uncontrolled (below) take-off zone.

Red = Carpets (controlled Take Off if necessary). Blue (below the gravel road!) = free take off at any time.

Take off “Bündner Rigi” at Illanz (1618m ASL) If the wind is too strong for a task, this take off often provides excellent recreational flying and soaring with top landing in the evening. 30 minutes from Disentis by car.

Disentis Open - www.disentis-open.ch 8 Landing Areas Disentis, “Sax” (1210m ASL) Normal landing field, official landing for flying schools and the club. The landing area is an enormous field sloping towards the valley wind. This landing zone has been used successfully during all competitions in Disentis.

Flims (1100m ASL) Possibility for poor conditions with SW wind (40km, 0:40 by car). Official landing for flying schools and the local club.

Schiers (650m ASL) On normal days with SW wind we will use “Schiers” (85km, 1:15 by car) Huge landing field. GPS download will be at Hotel Alpina (big parking for team-busses). The train station “Schiers” is a 5 minutes’ walk only, from where the pilots will have a very nice return to Disentis through stunning landscape.

Disentis Open - www.disentis-open.ch 9 Flight Area Disentis is known as an excellent area for interesting task setting in diffe- rent conditions.

Red: “Thermal freeway” for very poor conditions (40 km-Task with cloud base min. 1900m)

Blue: Normal task area with landing in Disentis (70-100 km-Task with cloud base 2600m)

Orange: Task direction for SW wind with goal in Flims (L20) or Schiers (L30). The landing in Schiers is situated next to a remote headquarter “Hotel Alpina” and the train station. There is a direct train back to Disen- tis (wonderful landscape).

Obstructions/Hazards: To the right of the take-off is the chairlift. It is easily visible. In the whole task area, only one more dangerous cable exists, which is marked on the map and explained during the briefings.

Disentis Open - www.disentis-open.ch 10 Alternate Flight Areas At Disentis we have the wonderful situation that within two driving hours we can move to meteorologically completely different flight areas.

Jura

Disentis

Tessin

Disentis Open - www.disentis-open.ch 11 Jura In case of permanent „Föhn“ (South Wind over the alps), we have the pos- sibility to move to Jura. Take-off would be „Weissenstein“, which is suitable for wind direction S to SE (not SW). It is a two hour drive to the meeting point and landing area.

Tessin The flight area Mt. Lema is similar to the well-known Cornizzolo. It is south of the mountains and suitable for light northerly winds. It is a two hour drive to the meeting point. A cable car will bring us up to a hughe take off.

Important: 1. We will only move if the weather looks very, very bad for several days and less than four tasks seem to be possible! 2. We will move only for day-trips! But: We will display information about the weather and flight possibilities in the- se areas during all bad weather days for teams who want to go flying there.

Detailed information about all flight areas: www.disentis-open.ch … flight-area

Disentis Open - www.disentis-open.ch 12 Transport Transport to the take-off site is provided by a very efficient cable car sys- tem. As it is built for winter tourism. therewill never be any “rush hour” in summertime. We are able to transport all teams to the take-off site within 30 minutes.

The Swiss public transport timetable works on hourly basis. As soon as pilots send their coordinates, they will get an automatic answer with the coordinates and time of the next bus or train.

Disentis Open - www.disentis-open.ch 14 Meteorology and flight condi- tions The valley from Chur to Disentis is situated in the “inner Alps”. This gives a unique situation with a protection from humidity from north and south. But as the valleys are smaller and the mountains not that high, the conditions are much weaker than in the Fiesch area.

A flying zone somewhat protected from bad wea- « ther allowing short tasks on bad days. Maxime Bellemin (official observer during the Pre-World Cup 2014) «

Weather report We work very closely with “MeteoSchweiz”, the official office for meteorolo- gy for Switzerland who is also responsible for aviation meteorology. With the COSMO prognosis (aera-model from ECMWF) and TOPTHERM (ther- mal prognosis from GFS - COSMO) we probably have the best weather re- ports worldwide. As second and third model normally use GFS-WRF-RASP. Our meteorologist Daniel Gerstgrasser (MeteoSchweiz employee and paraglider pilot) on location is able to check all models on location, even at take-off.

All weather reports are displayed and saved on our website: www.disentis-open.ch - meteo

Disentis Open - www.disentis-open.ch 15 Communication Radios: A 2m radio will be mandatory for all pilots and must be set to the safety fre- quency. The frequency is 157.400, the official frequency used in wintertime by the local ski school.

Live trackers: Live trackers will be provided and must be used by all pilots. We will work closely with Flytec/Livetrack24.

SMS system: We will regularly provide quick updates to pilots and team leaders via SMS (e.g. events, ranking availability, task stopping, and briefing times). The Meet Director is able to send SMS to all pilots with one SMS from his cell phone.

Mobile/Cell Phone Coverage Cell phone coverage is very good over nearly the complete flight area. Swiss SIM Cards will be made available; price is not fix (we are in negotiati- on with a sponsor).

Task will be stopped via radio, SMS and X on the goal line.

Disentis Open - www.disentis-open.ch 16 Rescue dispositive and airspace Rescue dispositive The Swiss rescue helicopter company REGA is known for its efficiency. Re- sponse time is 15-20 minutes and rescues with the winch are “the normal case”. Activation can be done via our Safety Manager or our team, but to save time in urgent cases, we introduced following system: Pilots are advised to install the REGA app on their cell phones. REGA will be informed about the exact task area directly after the briefing and will be in possession of the pilots list. In emergency cases, every pilot can place an alarm in simply shifting a slider on the REGA app (pilots or team leader can call the REGA directly and give them the coordinates of the accident).

With this system, a real 15-20 minutes response-time can be achieved.

Safety Record The area has an excellent safety record with few incidents. Thermic condi- tions are strong, but generally regarded as correct and fair and with enough working altitude. Close attention is paid at all times to the weather forecast and task setting.

Airspace There is no airspace problem for free flight and, as usual for airsports events, a NOTAM will be issued for the duration of the competition.
