| Submitter's comments: |
Today we fly along the cliffs of Dover. A strong sea breeze should provide some decent ridge lift along the coast, and also create a zone of convergence further inland. Since we are flying in the UK, cloud flying is allowed, although probably of limited use.
Target voltage for the Lak is again 103V. If you are new to E-glide, and not sure what this means, make sure to read the explanation on the competition details page, and also note that you need to make a screenshot after finishing.
After your flight, upload your FTR to condor club using the link on this briefing page, and submit your results using this google form:
