Today the sky was great! Flying towards south was easy and fast. Some gliders had hight speed, up to 160kmh, between Rieti and the first turning point (san Biagio Saracinesco). There was south wind and sea breese for a fantastic ridge soaring from Roccaraso to Monte Vettore, with strong climbing values over Monte Morrone: 4,8 m/s. In the north area flying was more difficult: there was no sun in Val Topina and weak wind on the ridges. There are 3 outlandings: LD, 27, AS. Tomorrow at 9:30pm ther...

Today it was very hard to complete the task. Not all competitors were been able to reach the 5 turning points even though weather conditions were very good with south-west wind that allowed to run fast along the ridge. Climbing values were of about 2/3 ms and cumulus bases were at 2200/2400m. Clara

Takeoffs today are shifted at 13 because we delivered, in grid, an alternative task of 340 km with a new turning point in the north area: Cesi instead of Gualdo Tadino. Here on the airfield the sky is really wonderfull with cumulus's base at 2700m and probably they are higher going to the south.§§§ It was a beautiful flight day with strong updrafts, a long line of clouds over the Apennines and there were even two different tipe of convergence ( over Gransasso-Maiella and in Val Roveto) formed b...
