High quality Open XC day

The UK continues with the depression maintaining a westerly flow over the Iberian Peninsula.  Early morning Cu and wind cross on at Peña Negra.  later blue thermals to around 3000m with a 15km/hr flow from the W at around t.o altitude.  around 20km/hr at top of lift.

South of west flow so convergence very likely in flatlands.  100km+ potential.  Lets see what happens!

Noon

15.00

Time section P.N to Segovia

Mike T, Mike B, Dave , Alan and myself over the pass,  Difficult early conditions but between Villatoro and Avila perfect conditions: smooth and strong with good Cu development.  AFte Avila more of a NW and blue.  Alan made 70km landing near the Windmills.

Nice evening conditions once again.

Tomorrow looking a bit windy!
