The Adele and Giorgio Orsi Aero Club is organizing the sixth edition of the prestigious “E Glide” competition. Pilots competing in this race, scheduled for Sept. 8-14, are expected to come from all over the world. The beauty of the “E6Glide” competition lies not only in the breathtaking landscapes of our territory, but also in the peculiarity of the challenge: pilots will have a limited amount of energy from the power batteries on board the glider, which they can use at the most opportune time and place to improve the performance of their glider. This limit must be met scrupulously, otherwise a time penalty will be applied that could cost the pilot a relevant position in the ranking.
A nice opportunity for pilots to fly in the pre-alpine area at the end of the summer season and for the public to enjoy this sporting spectacle along with the mild climate of the northern Italian lakes.
More information will be posted on these pages of the ACAO website and technical information for participants on the SoaringSpot website.
Pilots wishing to attend the race can enter their registration through the enrollment form button on the right.
