flight 1-30-10

flight 1-30-10

This was my flight on 1-30-10. I launched Crestline. Headed over to the billboard. Thermaled up to 6400 and then headed off to Marshal. Passed cloud at 5100. Cruised around not finding much lift. Finally wound up at regionals at 3500. Found a weak thermal and started to go up. It got better and better and better. Went up 2300 feet on one thermal. Look at the flight track. It is almost a perfect straigt line up. Hit 5800 and cruised back to Crestline. Then headed out over the college and to the LZ. Great fligh! I am really jazzed about the big thermal and that I captured it.
