here's a couple new pic's and movie, it's filmed  in southern Sweden. you fly over the sea so the wind will come from the south. this day was the north-east wind, so we flew on the inside of the slope, the wind was from the beginning 7m/sek. which was weaker in the evening. Maybe not the best to test fly ...!
harakkan had CG back a little much, there was one flight, then the wind died completely. but it is only to try again ....

Very good Conny. :clap:  :clap:
 I hate having to search around for lift. That was a very gentle flight with no harm done at the end, so I hope you will fly her again soon. :D

By the way,….I thought the title of the music was very appropriate :wink:
