Airspace at the 2010 pre-Worlds


Flavio Tebaldi said that there wouldn't be an airspace issue at
the pre-Worlds. He wasn't the only one. I kept asking and everyone said that it
wouldn't be an issue. It's an issue.

The airspace just in front of launch is 6,000' (normally it is 2,500'). We fly
under substantial sections of airspace that is defined as starting at 6,000'. A
number of pilots got zeroed on the first day (it is being challenged) and
fifteen pilots got warnings.

Airspace is cramping the competition. Pilots are staying under 6,000' no matter
where they are because they are concerned that they might get into airspace and
get zeroed for the day.

It's not even real airspace. It's just a limit because of a nearby sailplane
competition. Not only that but the Perusa airport has two flights a week and has
a huge defined airspace, way beyond what is reasonable.
