I declared 768km at ~128kph, followed by free flying. SkySight was perfect in its predictions today. Exactly at 1730, the climb strengths dropped off from 4kts down to 1.5kts to end the day on! Good fun as always.

Another day that was bloody good fun. Many thanks to Mac for keeping me well informed on the storm and showers on my return. It gave me much confidence! Got a bit low with the midday sun up North which slowed me down a bit, but once above 6500' again it was game on, rocketing along at 200kph and often taking 8kt climbs - 125kph for the task today, then extended for 900. Great fun day, haven't been up at FL120 in a glider in a while!

Another awesome day in the skies, as well as a personal best for me regarding distance -- 1,115km at 122kph! Sadly, I misinterpreted SkySight today and underset my task of 790km - which I did at 151kph. I finished at altitude and continued on to max out the day. While I didn't see Geoff, Mac or Akemi much, it was still nice to share the skies with you all. Blown away by the performance, feel and energy of the V3 - loving every flight!

I declared a 1000km FAI triangle. A slog against the wind on two of the legs and a cool, lowish day.
