I flew a school-glider for the first time in 4 years this weekend, it was strange. We started a hangglider course this weekend in Vågå, cold and no wind, but it went well.

Good flight today. It was quite strong conditions early, and I met lots of pilots coming down from start. Met Johannes Moger at start, we rigged and flew in good conditions, there were even 3 m/s thermals coming up from the ridge. My harness zipper failed, and opened up totally in some strong turbulence. Scary moment when it failed… 2 PG pilots also flew later.

Got a short flight from Sundvollen today. I was late, but there was lots of pilots out flying today. Looks good for tomorrow as well.

First flight from Sundvollen this year! I landed on the ice, and walked back up again. Great flight in the winter conditions. Illustrated tale here
