Easterlies

Situation

Thankfully the greater instability aloft remains to our south so we may get away with another day without large build ups in our flying area.  The protagonist maybe the  Easterly wind.  There is a SE blowing since early this morning, though it should come on to the main site.  We can consider going to Chia if it does not.  Moderate Easterlies are typically quite turbulent and can also give us a few surprises when we think they are light at take off.  See the video below if you have not already.

What Happened

A decent day as we got of early and had some very nice thermalling out front.  Scott , James and I landed when it started to get a bit  strong. Pete flew on to around 30kms.
