Morocco -4
Meanwhile, my visit to Moroc draws slowly to an end. It has, as usual, offered many experiences and flights in different regions. After Aguergour we changed to the coast south of Agadir, where we flew at 'Aglou', 'Legzira' and 'Nigel's place'.

In 'Sidi Ifni' we didn't fly as the status of the site is unclear...
Unfortunately due the very damp and rather cool weather I fell ill (fever/ influenza) and was out for some days (or not very motivated at all) and didn't recover completey until the end of the trip.
For 1 night we changed to 'Tafraoute/ Idikel' an inland site: nice, warm (!) weather and little wind, so we made our best flights there (Hmax 2940m).

The next day flying was possible at 'Col du Kerdous' (but I renounced, as launch was a bit too far from the road for me).
Back to our 'base' Aftas Trip at Mirleft, we tried to fly again at 'Aglou', but wind -direction and -speed have not been optimal, so only some groundhandling for me. Only late in the afternoon, I was able to make a (short) flight at 'Legzira-Felsentor'. Here conditions have been perfect for soaring. so perfect actually that too many people have been flying in the rather small space available...

On the last day 'Chergui', a wind coming from the Sahara started to blow, which prevented any further flying, so we headed back to Marrakesh. Unfortunatley Khalla's Landcruiser broke down shortly before reaching the city, so we had to wait for a replacement car, while his had to be towed for repairs.
