Another day at Sundvollen with dense low fog, while it’s sun and perfect conditions when leaving Oslo. This sucks!

The fog ruined all chances of flying today, maybe it’s better tomorrow.

Tomorrow the weather looks good for soaring at Sundvollen, NW winds and sun, so I’ll try to get some much needed airtime.

I’m pretty sure the flying conditions will be great, until he leaves… Maybe I should fit a Sidewinder missile to my CSX, and have a flight :-)

I’ve had a few flights lately from Sundvollen. Last week I started 30 minutes too early, the conditions picked up after I landed, but it was too late to take another flight. Last weekend there was lots of pilots in the air over Sundvollen, but I was busy both days.
I drove to Sundvollen on Saturday, but it was no wind so I never rigged.
