Overlooking the coastline, whilst soaring over Hondon North.

In front of us, huge cloudformation and rain in the distance.

Hondon de las Nieves north. We had a two hour window and took it. When we arrived there was slight rain, and had to wait.
We were at take off at 1 pm, just central hour, when the sun is at its strongest. With some luck cloudbase would higher up a bit, and we would maybe get a clear spell.
10 minutes later Robert in the air, followed by his fellow pilots from Sweden.
Two hours later, just after Robert had landed, clouds gathered again, wind dropped and first drops were felt.

Hondon North is not a regular site. The road is bad, it is a bit of a drive, and lots of times we'd been up there and couldn't fly. Although the ridge gives you splendid views overlooking the coastline, the Arizona looking terrain of dry Crevillente.

Thanks Borje Svensson, Robert Wikstrand, Eduardo Gibs (no foto sorry .... you were too fast ....), Jan Erik Lundin from Skarmsflyg Sweden (did I pronounce it right this time guys ?).

Thanks for flying again with us, always a pleasure. Say hello to your girl and boyfriends up there. Good skills at take off can take you far away, it is of such an importance, and you had the skills, good one.
