French championship

6th Acrolac began!

On friday the 6th edition of Acrolac started at Bourget du Lac, close to Chambéry. It is an FAI2 category event and the french championship so there are a lot of french and some international pilots are participating. It was heavily raining all the night and in the morning, but finally the sun arrived and the conditions got better. 15 newcomer pilots had to make the safety qualification run by boat towing and not all of them passed the selection. Unfortunately there are only 3 synchro teams signed up for the competition.
