Big Easy Open XC day.

This is the day before a frontal transition which are usually the epic days.  Friday and Saturday will not be so good, Saturday probably unflyable with a cold front going through.  There after for the DSC group I have arranged for it to be suitably epic!

Today there is an inversion at 3800, so climbs to there and a bit beyond with some Cu in the convergence which will probably be quite south of Segovia and Avila again…. the only thing  that stops this being an easy 200km day.  Winds are light, thermals are strong and convergence for sure for the first 60km.

A big day for Johan!  don’t forget your tracker, radio, vario etc.  ….and don’t bomb out at the Villafranca transition.
