Today was one of our better winter thermalling days in february !
It was Ian's first thermalling flight (over an hour), and Noel's best thermalling flight ever (over an hour), Leonard our kiwi, flew his brandnew Nova RA, Ogi sky high in the valley under his Airwave Sport3, and good old Henrik from Sweden, as always topping up his "Alicante-airtime". He's been here more than 10 times already, and still loves it (me).
After flying for over an hour in thermals, some development was coming in from the east. All of a sudden it got pretty gusty. Looking around it looked as if overdevelopment like yesterday was possible. But luckily it all died off, and we could do some flying in more dynamic conditions, till winds died off completely.
It's full moon, and tomorrow we get eastern winds. This could mean night flights at the clifs, overflying the lighthouse, watching the full moon as a spot on the mediterranean sea.
But then it has to be perfect, wait and see.
