Big Wednesday

Today was a classic XC day at Mystic - big cu, high base, and a sweet Eastish tailwind aloft. Craig, Fred, and Karl flew crosswind to Benalla (90+ km) in about 4 hours. Colin flew a bit past that.

It was a real treat to top out at 2500 meters under perfect Cu around Mount Buffalo. Heike and I got to the King Valley and weren't sure were to go next so we flew around for a while and landed out at about 50km. The hitch hiking was like blundering into a 7 m/s climb, we got home in no time. My track log can be viewed here.

Tomorrow could be a repeat.

Stay Tuned!
