I hope my hangglider enjoyed the trip to Khao Sadao. No
flying due to tailwind. I walked up to Khao Phrik – 10 minutes of sweating,
sun, and 34 degrees in the shadow.
The wind was from the left, that is NNE, so I didn’t carry
any glider (para- and especially hangglider). Someone had cut bushes and trees
in front of the start, but still there were some obstacles. I would not start
there with a paraglider if I was not more than 100 % sure to be lifted up right
after take off.
Today machines start making a road up to a new take off at
Khao Phrik. Ten days from now the road will be finished (so they say), and we
will have a supreme take off on wind from northerly directions. Then Khao Sadao
and nearby Khao Phrik will be the Mecca of paragliding and hanggliding in
Thailand.
