Last two days of unofficial tranning XG


 Yesterdays Task was set to the mountains, it was a very frustrating flight as we had small number of  clouds in the mountains which were giving 1-2 kts of lift.  After claiming first TP and setting the course to the next one, there was now trace of clouds for the next 50km. I decided to skip second and third TP deep in the mountains with no place to land. I decided to try  last TP to familiarize with the edge of mountain area. It was a challenge and polishing  rocks wasn't pleasant .

Today we had very nice day with high cloud bases and good lift  with a couple of big blue holes to cross .

It was the best day since we arrived in Benalla.

Tomorrow is the first official practice day.
