Thermal Height 4016 m Great height for flying XC. 10,000ft day!!! Warning C Airspace above 8500ft over Bakewell |
Thermal Quality 90% Updraft Velocity 3.93m/s 770 ft/min |
Temperature 43 C It will be very hot on the ground. Stay in the shade and drink plenty of water. Fly with water.It will be down to 2.8 C in the air. |
XC Potential (4hrs) 124.875km downwind XC or 33.75 km Triangle Possible by Sport Class Pilot. |

The wind on the ground will be from N . The wind on the top launches will be from N at 25kph gusting to 39kph In a N () Ridge soaring will be ... probably not a good idea. The chance of it being magic is 0%.
