TAR 17 Speculation

<< < (28/177) > >>

--- Quote from: DavidMV on May 29, 2010, 06:45:49 PM ---Do you think there was an entire leg in UK? Or could it be just like some tasks in there and then departure times to take charter flights to Luxembourg?

This time, it is a bit weird, IMO.

We got thrown off the trail by joey. :groan:

Caelestor:
Last season, there were no TAR sightings in Europe (due to the night leg in Hamburg and mostly countryside legs in France). Same here probably.

Doubt TAR would use charter flights. Even with the new start city, remember TAR's budget is probably still constrained...

I'd speculate they'd be in Belgium, because the UK is a very expensive place to host a leg (not as expensive as before though, since the pound has fallen vs. the dollar).

mjriches2005:
I just realized that Luxembourg is still maybe possible.  Teams may have did an extra task in England still and flew from Heathrow to Amsterdam to Findel Airport on KLM/KLM Cityhopper.  It could be possible that teams may arrived in Luxembourg later in the evening if they encountered a layover in Amsterdam.  If they arrived in the evening and if the venue for the next clue is already closed til morning, they would have to wait overnight til the place opens.  It could still be possible!

mjriches2005:
There's something thats really bothering me.  How can two teams that were reported be in Luxembourg on Friday and and teams at Heathrow Airport on the same day but at a later time.  How many teams were seen at Heathrow at that time?  The Findel Airport posting does sound legit to me and the teams pink F/F and orange M/M does sound accurate.  Were other teams spotted at Findel or not? Did they flew Gatwick-Luxembourg on a first-come, first-served basis if seats were limited and the remainder of teams flew Heathrow-Luxembourg via connecting airport later on?
