x section over time

 

A high trigger temperature today which will make it slow to get going.  A decent thermal top height and relatively light winds may allow us to fly to the NW, though if weak we will have to go the Cherry Tree valley direction.

Briefing at the house at 11.30am

uptdate 11.25.  Wind at t.o a bit SE and more wind than normal from SE in valley at the moment.  Postpone going up probably till signs of  it coming in

    Hi Martin, We dont need to go to Candelario unless we have a 4000m W wind. With N, it is better flying from PN. Also I envisioned 2 vans for going there to make things easier. this week we only have 1 driver (somewhat overworked this week!)
