The Swiss have had quite a few days of good weather for the Yorknite exercise this year. Two very nice special paint schemes too.
First wave take-offs are fine, but even on a good day it's always touch and go as to whether you'll be able to catch the return of the first wave in sunlight (assuming we actually get some sun this time of year!). The later waves take off in darkness.
