Dear Pilot

 

Unfortunately, I must inform you that MD Ventus needs to cancel the Slovenia F3F Cup 2021.

 

This is due to on-going Covid-19 epidemic in Slovenia and rest of the EU countries.

As you can see in the below map, most of the EU countries are still red including Slovenia.

 

https://www.ecdc.europa.eu/en/covid-19/situation-updates/weekly-maps-coordinated-restriction-free-movement

 

As for Slovenia, we still have quite high numbers of confirmed cases per day.

Current Covid-19 restrictions makes it impossible to organise the competition.

 

Considering the well being and safety of all pilots and organising team we decided to cancel the event.

 

Those of you who have already paid the entry fee can decide:

 

To get a refund. Use the entry fee for 2022 competition.

 

If you decide to use the entry fee for 2022, please note that it is not valid for automatic registration.

To make it fair for everyone those will have to register again.

 

Please send me your decision via e-mail.

 

Hoping for a better year in 2022 and to see you soon on the slope nearby.

 

Stay safe.

 

Best regards from Slovenia
