| Submitter's comments: |
On the first leg we have some steep ridges to follow, but the wind forecast is rather weak.
The second leg also has some low and shallow ridges both east and west, or you can opt for the flat lands and use the moderately good thermals to reach the last leg.
Then, we will not end our task with a final glide, but with a final climb. You will need to climb in and possibly above a cumulus to achieve the finish altitude of 3200m.
Obviously, cloud flying is permitted today, its going to be a necessity.
All 18m planes in condor are equipped with an artificial horizon, except the ASG29-ES.
