Couldn't believe it when my friend Pani from Murcia called and asked where we were gonna fly today. Because the winds were very strong near our hills.

But again, in Murcia, winds were different. So off to Carrascoy, where Jette, Jan and Cordian had some strong lift up to 1650 m ASL. Thermals 4.5 m/s, and at times it was better to get low because winds on height were just like in Alicante too strong to be good.

Landing as usual, or at least like many times, was tricky again. Always a bit of turbulence above the landing field. And always gusty when coming in, but that's Carrascoy for you.

A good day after all, when we didn't think it would be flyable.
