We’re driving to Hay for some car towing now, writing this from a computer shop in Goldburn.
We got the gliders and car, AC did not work but we’re having it fixed as I’m writing. We flew at Stanwell park and Hill 60 for a few days, but a front moved in with some rain so we’re heading inland for the heat and dry weather. The gliders go great, and everything seems to be ready for the comps.
Lots of people here, Thomas have gone off for some sailplane comps, so he will not fly with us. Guess he had enough with a few new world records.
There’s supposed to be GSM coverage in Hay so I can post some news via the phone.
I’m leaving to Australia in a few hours. I’ll update these pages whenever I can find a internet connection. I’ll be flying the Australian nationals in Hay, and the Forbes Flatlands 2001. Might fly a few days of the Bogong cup as well.
Have a nice Chrismas!

This site had to move, and it happened before I thought it would. The server is now back up, sorry to all of you who tried to access it without answer. Let me know if there’s any problems.
On saturday it was actually possible to soar on sundvollen, I had to work of course… Reliable sources speak of strong winds, and great flying. Here’s the source as wav sound file :-) as left on Erik’s “mobilsvar”
