Day 8 HD Report

The weather was supposed to be good today, but cirrus didn't disappear as forecast, worse in some places it was thick and thermals were very weak.

I couldn't climb higher than 1000m Agl. and had low point around 300m agl with not much options .I picked field and was ready to start the engine when I hit 1m/s and slowly climbed back. I joined group of gliders and we moved slowly forward.

Around 65 km from finish I was able to climb close to the cloud base and flew final glide with two open class gliders.

I regained some points again, but still I'm on the bottom of the list . Five pilots from our class landed out. Three days of racing left.
