Thur (15.10.) Just a flight from Panettone in the morning. Some thermals allowed to fly almost 50'. Later in the afternoon I went back up to Panettone with the group, but didn't fly in the end...

Fri (16.10.) At 1020 we arrived already at Panettone; many pilots already there... The wind for launch has not been optimal, as well as the inversion has been well below launch. While the rest of the group went for a sledge ride, I have decided to wait for improvement...
It has been a nice week with good flying weather; I made only a flight per day, but for once I had gpretty good launches and good/ excellent landings (not a single one landing on my butt) ;-))

Finally around 1330, a steady south wind steped in and the cloudbase slowly raised above launch. The thermals above the hills and below cloudbase have been a bit bumpy, so I landed after 35'.But I still have been pretty happy: a good launch as well as a very good landing ;-)
Sat (17.10.) Probably a flight would have been possible, but I left around 0830, heading home via Merano-Vinschgau-Münstertal-Ofenpass-Nationalpark and via Vereina (train). Luckily I could load as the very last car onto the train for the Vereina tunnel :-)) Vinschgau has been -as usual- on heavy traffic, so I lost about 45'. But weather wise it has been excellend.
