Day 11: Sain Vincent Les Forts

To be Edited more ..

But until then, here is Arnel ;anding at the take off of Saint Vincent Les Forts. I do not recall if this was before or after we saw that guy making an undesired Helico landing at the same place just after his take off with all his breacks tangled around the elevators : Some people never learn that pre-flight inspection is useful ...

Day 10: Day off :Too windy to fly

To be edited more but here is the highlight of the day : LAUNDRY

Then in the evening the rain started and we fortunately got invited in the chalet of Viera and Eric to have the dinner. That was a wet evening :-)

Here is the video of everyone around the table: Veronique, Luciana, Arturo, Anatole, Stefanie, Maria, Patrick, Chloe, Eric, Viera, Erik, Arnel.

But every one slept well and the water did not make it into the tent even though we had worngly put the under cover and had lake under the tent in the morning ... Strange feeling to walk on it :-)

Bad weather activity

Day 9: Arriving in Aspres

Bad weather today ... We came by car following the same route that we had few days earlier by flying. After parking the vans in La Faurie, we all went to the take off (twice that day) but with no success as the T-Storms were passing by La Longeane.

Here is a picture at the East Launch : very technical !

We finally decided to go and have lunch in "Le Chevalet" where the Sail Plane airport and the camping are.



We were sad to hear that next year, all this will have disapeared as they start ot build a Solar plant. Good for the work and good for the environment, but what will be the impact on Free Flight is still unknown.

The following picture is only the day after but since we talk about the Chevalet and that it will disapear, here is the swiming pool where Luciana was jumping: Nice goggles :-)

One must hitch-hike

When the road ends...

Sometimes we need to walk !
