Icy positive thinking :thumbup:


Get everything I know from you ;)

My mate went to Zermatt with his missis on 30 Dec, looks like they might have had a poor ending to their week :twisted:

And Tony H - Think you have misread the forecast. It is not 23 Jan that those conditions start, it is 13 Jan - sorry to wee on your chips :roll:

Innsbruck Sat, could be a fun approach. Heated runway a plus.

Latest news from the Alps on snowfall:

Chamonix: 1m of snow at 2000m in just 24hrs.Cat 5 Avalanche Risk tomorrow (Friday)

Les Arcs: All roads in/out closed due to Avalanches.

St Anton: Likely to be completely shut this weekend with no way in/out due to 2m of predicted snow.

So, there you are. More neige than you could shake a stick at ! Oh, and it's coming on really strong winds so massive amounts of windslab too. And there's more coming....

Suggest you put your transceivers on before you leave UK......

I have the faith, still flying at the mo. Just watching the Biathlon from Oberhof and the crowd turning into snowmen as you watch.

Looking at the long term forcast looks like when I am away - 15 Jan, there will also be snow that week - nothing like what we have now though :)
