Soaring on Good Friday ?

Post by BeastFromTheEast » Tue Apr 11, 2017 12:20 am

Thinking of organising some tasks on Friday 14th ...... usual Beastly rules, can people indicate if they are interested.

EDIT: Possibly a 400k wave task in the afternoon, 300k in the evening. Alpine-Arc scenery. All welcome

Long Good Friday - afternoon task

Task map, people. Note that there will be a 0-4000m ASL penalty zone between TP1 and TP4 to ensure people stay in the wave (not shown for clarity).

GAWD! Nearly 4 hours - the longest Beastly sortie yet. Towards the end - a close encounter of the RAM kind

Completed, eventually in 4hours 45 min!

Uploaded to CC. Only 1739 penalty points. :D

Arrived in sunny Venice mid morning. Thought I would relax with an ice cream and a ride in a gondola, but they were all gone. Something about being very busy as it is an holiday.

A snap of the last Gondola.
