Saturday
A lovely jaunt down to Titraupenga with Bill yesterday. Turned out better than the forecast looked.
Sunday
Today was forecast to be the better of the days, with a solid thermal strength on RASP. And indeed it was. Four of us, Bill in RR, Bob in YL, Alan in RY, and myself in XP tootled our way down to Waipunga Falls, almost halfway on the Napier/Taupo highway. We had to use airspace a lot of the way, and this was problem free. Cloudbases up to 6500 feet at the turnpoint and the ride home was definitely easier than the ride down.
I put my flight on the online competition, view the day here:
