but still possible to fly. Friday we arrived too late. On
Saturday I got 5 flights, and on Sunday two.
Strong wind all night and three early morning flights on
Saturday. Enough wind for top landings. Then Bengt from Sweden arrived
accompanied by a heavy thunderstorm. Torrential rain, lightnings, and heavy
wind. At three o’clock I could fly again. The air was kind of spooky. One short
flight to check the conditions and one more top landing. A little after I tried
again. Lift almost everywhere, and I had to work to come down. I did not want
to follow the thermals as there was some rain falling from the clouds far away.
Sometimes I did not penetrate at all, and I had several tries at top landing
before I eventually succeeded.
On Sunday there was no wind in the morning. Then the wind
picked up, and I flew two flights together with some three pilots from
Singapore.
This week there will be southerly winds all the time…
