European events finished for 2013
Last two events in Europe were finished in Vrsac , Serbia and Tusnad Romania. More than 100 pilots took part from 13 different countries. Weather in Vrsac permitted only three rounds due to strong wind but in Tusnad was better and pilots made five rounds. Now after 24th rounds you can see final ranking at results. In top ten , Europeans are the better but I hope after last round in Asia the ranking will be changed with more Asian pilots. See you in Malaysia on last PGAWC event and winning ceremony.
