20min
Max Altitude (asl):
1200m
Wind Direction at landing:
SE
Wind Speed at Landing (km/h):

Notes:
apparently, got there too late. Very light conditions on launch (SE 0-3 km/h), high cloud efficiently covered the sun. somewhat broken up thermals, drifting NW too much for my liking. IMHO, shear layer at about 900 m ASL was present, with some mild but annoying bumpiness. Still -- beats a day of no flying!
