Got up in the morning near six, and found a surprise on my laptop screen, that the nightly Wien sonde landed near SZGY's. Quickly called him to wake up. Then, drove to the scene. The radio was on, and the exact coordinates were found easily. Parked the car near a hunter's high-stand, and walked to the sonde, which was lying on a field. The wind was strong enough to pick the parachute up. As You can see on the photo, the wind pulled the sonde on the field, before it stopped finally, causing the temperature sensor's break. Then, on the way back to the car, we've met a hunter who's checking the place, showed him the sonde, and said bye to each other.
When I started the car, unfortunately while extending from the dirt road, the car was stuck in the mud, so I had to call and wake up my father who likes sleeping long especially on Sundays. He arrived soon, and hooked his Dacia Sandero to my Passat's back, and pulled the stuck wheel from the muddy pottery, then we drove home safely.
