Quixada - Day 3


Again we've been on launch shortly after 0700. The first pilots launched around 0800, but cloudbase has been rather low and the winds from NE. Most departed quite early and low, but only a couple made it beyond 100kms.
I waited till after 1300 and launchend into an almost overcast sky. Conditions were smooth with strong thermals, but after a while it started to rain, which made me land (again) at "Juatama" :-(

Results
Arnie: 115.8km,
Michael: 115.5km
Burky: 130.9km from TO

...now later in the afternoon (1600) the sky has cleared up considerably, which lets us hope that tomorrow there will be less humidity and thus better conditions...
