day 3 -settling in
Wednesday 15th - had a good few days - the weather is nice - warm 30c unlike England ! Have flown twice each day which has been good - I set a circle task for the rest of the team and then did some ground speed calibration, having the GPS and software is powerful and unlike the nationals when you leave on a Sunday to forget what you have done there is ample opportunity to fly and then analyse the track. The flight this morning was calm to begin with but as the temperature rose the thermals really began to kick in, in amongst the valleys the wind was variable and this made conditions interesting at times. Robbie Keene and Simon Baker are now here and therefore the British Team are all here. Tomorrow there is a practice task run by the organisers and this will be a chance to see how they intend to run the tasks- we’ll see……. I ‘ll update tomorrow and hopefully there will be a few opportunities for some photos.
