Fortuna. For those who have been here, they know the take off. You are rocketed up the cliffs when you reverse launch. But ! You know what ?

The pilots from Murcia, it is their site by the way, so thanks for letting us use it ! Well, they have a new take off at their site now, lower than the one before, already carpeted and very user friendly.

Early afternoon, Jose Luis showed us how it was done. He thermalled up to 1500 m and went XC. It was the first time he flew here, so still looking for the good route. He managed to fly over 20 k, then being hit by the strong southwesterly. Enhorabuena !

Later in the day, it was still thermalling but lots smoother. After asking the locals how the route was to get to the furthest point fighting the crosswind conditions, it was a piece of cake.

During the strong hours we were lazying at the pool.

Pool with heated water, yes, 30 degrees. and outside of course, and jacuzzi's, nice.

You didn't want us to wait in the scorching heat did you ?
