Excellent coverage of the US team is being provided daily by Team
Captain Richard Maleady with many great pictures posted of the team
blog which chronicles the trials and tribulations that typifies world
championship flying.

The contest site is pretty good also. The live tracking is
interesting. The web cam captured 44 finishers in 10 minutes a couple
of days ago (refreshes every 9 seconds), but the current view is not
on the main landing area, rather offset to show the sky conditions
over the mountains. Scores get posted quickly. Ritz Corner
commentary hits the highlights.
