We have flown almost every day, and good flying! Smiling and flying takes a lot of power ;-)

I have flown the Swift from Ozone and soo has two of my posse. It’s a very good performing lightweight 1-2 glider. It is a superb product.

Now the last two flights i have been flying a Gin Sprint, also a great product. Good sinkrate, easy to thermal and fantastic colours!!! limegreen rules!!!

During the last years i have always said to my posse that most gliders are good, just find the one U feel safe under and like the colours… and i have been right the whole time ;-)

On the 5th of september we stayed on Cheiron for the night, sunset and fullmoon. Realy nice with wine and cheese. Later Kingy joined us and in the morning we waited for the northwind to go away. Then we had a lovely flight.

We had two days of mistral, one day of rest and fixing gear. One day checking the Canyon du Verdon. One big crack in mother earth.

We had a long nice day in sunny provence. Jonna spent the days in Nice and got back with another blond Finn…

Yesterday i flew from Lachens to Col de bleyne, alone, conditions were abit rough. Only me and sailplanes in the air… Got to try the Gin Sprint in turbulence. Check. No probs. I then hitched back just to get back in time for lunch. After that we went up again to takeoff and waited for the conditions to settle abit… It was hard. At 17.00 it went smother and the posse took off, into great conditions. Once the southside lost the sun the westside wentoff!!! 1900 meters and tree pilots headed out on xc. The four others had some nice magic air in the sun. Take care and see U in the air
