Arcus Thermal Flights

I had several fun thermal cross-country flights with Gordon.  One was greater than 750 km.  Another one was nice a low over the Sierra’s, but pretty fast and with a long final glide back to the home airport.

Cruising at high speed along the Sierra's and no engine.

We finished our flight and we're happy.

This is my pose after 7.5 hour flight and 750 km.
