Submitter's comments: |
Today we fly in the beautiful area around the Gap Trench, between Sisteron and Lake Serre Poncon. We are flying club class, so you have a chance to try the new Libelle. Weather forecast is reasonably good and south facing ridges should carry you, but beware ridges arent very high around here, and your non ballasted club class plane doesnt have the same reach as a JS1. Add to that only moderate thermal activity, so moderate your speed, try to stay high and dont wait too long before taking a thermal. 15 min join time 1 min warmup 15 min start window |
