An unusual weather day with the passage of a front but leaving good evening soaring for the new arrivals.

Saturday 17th August: A great day with climbs to 3700m earlier on.  Many went down near la Torre, However, Esa, Martin, Steve and myself carried on.  A bit North near Segovia with Steve falling just short of the goal.

A good day with climbs to 3000m.  5 down just before Pass, but most others made it to Avila and beyond, with Maarten and Toby past Villacastin and Hans near Windmills after Avila.

A very nice day with light winds from the N.  Busy at take off with the HG competition also present.  Most had a gread day with strong climbs and best flights by Hans and Steve making  a circuit to the Pass, Barco then home.  Around 70km.  Also fantastic evening soaring.

A pair of nice 3000m days with very light winds allowing a circuit and goal flights into the Avila Valley.

Quite cool weather over the last few days with low base and today relatively high NE winds

Goal for Beat and a PB at 112kkm for Earl.  Me not far behind Earl then Ana near the 100km Mark with Graham around 70km and Stev B in Avila.  Quite tricky take off conditions with a lateral wind which did not come on well to the main launch so we used the grassy launch […]

Thursday gave us nice conditons after take off with climbs to near 3000 before going over the Pass, but we all bombed out on the other side in rather strong winds in the Avila valley.  Friday, great climbs, light wind and circuits around the valley towards Pass and north of Valley.

Rasp perfectly described the day, with wind coming on hill around 2pm and a swing to the NNE after the Pass of the convergence with a strong SE east of track.  Sofi, Dimitri, Colin, Ana, Martyn and myself crossed the Pass, myself with a gaggle of sailplanes at 3500m.  Unfortuntely Martin (Mantra 6) had to […]

A NE flow day and poor thermals initially,  We did the classic run to Barco on the xc flight, then repeated it for the eveinging flight (though only Sofi and I arrived on that one).
