Austrian Team Lands in Minnesota; Seven Teams Still Aloft

WOKK9161C.JPG

Posted 5:45 AM MDT (1145z)

The Command Center confirms that Team 8, Christian Wagner and Thomas Lewetz of Austria, have landed safely near Wheaton MN, close to the border with South Dakota. They sent photos back from their landing site and are in good spirits!

At this writing several teams are approaching the Canadian border and Lake Superior, and the teams are about to cross into full daylight. This is a point when teams typically make a decision about whether to cflying through the day or land with the sunrise. We'll keep you posted as they send the Command Center information.
