Toni Swiss pilot under his Swing glider.

Peter Gick under his Skywalk C3.

Bernt in the sky, always top of the stack, and Reinhold ready for launch at Reconco.
Lots of pilots, local pilots will not believe we took these photo's this afternoon. But actually we did of course.
Why ? Well it was so cloudy at the coast, it was hard to believe we were gonna find a decent site to fly on. But we did, of course ... .
We left for Reconco, as the sun was shining there since early day. And not like at the coast only from midday onwards.
So up to Onil, to enjoy some hours of decent thermalling weather, meanwhile watching towards the coastline and seeing clouds building up.
Thermals up to 5 m/s were second were registered. Not so bad for a lousy Alicante december day I would say.
All german pilots present and only one british and one swiss pilot. I have to buy Der Spiegel and practice my Japanese-German.
