This information was sent to me directly from New Zealand by Bruce Hoult.
Today was the final day of official practice. Tomorrow we have the opening ceremony and the airshow. The serious stuff starts on Sunday. Hopefully I will be able to keep everyone adequately posted on the contest proper. -- Bruce Weather Forecast Situation: An anticyclone straddles nothern NZ and is drifting eastwards.
