WhatsApp groups
Posted: 15 August 2023 - 07:17

Hi all,


During this event, we are going to use WhatsApp for the recall procedure, for spreading competition-related and public information, etc.

For this purpose, two WhatsApp groups were created:

Leszno 2023 public 

and Leszno 2023 ED

The Leszno 2023 public is open to everyone and anyone can join it and share his pictures, videos, and messages. The Leszno 2023 ED is closed. Only the pilot, his crew chief, and officials can join this group. Most of the time, the ability to comment will be disabled in this group and only during the flight, and one hour before and after it, it will be possible to write comments, questions, and other important information for the flight. This group will also be used by the measurement team to report the corrected coordinates of the targets used in a particular flight if such corrections occur. We will also use this group to collect pilot landing messages and pilots' confirmations about receiving important messages.
