| What a weekend !
4 days of flying and today was the icing on the cake.
Despite predicted showers and thunderstorms I absolutely wanted to try a flight around the TMA of Geneva. Since an early start should be possible, I planned to cross from the Jura Mountain Range into the Chartreuse near Chambéry early in the day and a 750 km FAI triangle seamed to be possible.
After a high tow, everything went according to the time schedule. Unfortunately a first local TS local developed near Geneva at 13:00.
Nevertheless I decided to push on and wanted to climb at the well exposed ridge of Culoz at the Southern end of the Jura. *Sigh* no chance to climb above 1500m AMSL in the blue conditions. Usually one needs about 2000m to reach the thermals on the French side. After spending 40 minutes trying, this was becoming a problem. No possibility to turn back, more and more thunderstorms started to develop and the clock was ticking. Way too low for a comfortable glide towards the first hills of the Chartreuse, I could only move forward and headed for the first low hills. Apparently, I arrived just at the right moment and got solid lift from below the crest. The same thing happened on the next hill, just abeam the CTR of Chambéry. Thanks to the kind controller I was allowed to cross overhead the airfield and could connect on the Western side of the valley.
About 250 km from Hausen am Albis, F2 and I could connect with the energylines near the thunderstorms: Some extremely strong climbs (+7.0m/s on the averager), very long glides through dead air, weak thermals under complete overcast, and finally a comfortable final glide into the calm skies of the Swiss Mittelland. What a day !
PS: I still don't understand why the beautiful Culoz Mountain didn't work.
PPS: I will never declare this triangle again in conditions with warm-air-advection |
