I'm back from my trip yesterday! 476 km. After a early flight
really very difficult in banchet mode (I'm the only survivor of the team in the
air) with only 100 km covered in around 3, I was able to take advantage of fine
lines of clouds and conditions Really very good. Routine of rise in thermal and
transitions to the cleat at bottom of accelerator above forests huge to make up
for lost time.

My average schedule is up to almost 60 km / h during the following 6:30! The GPS
announced more than 100 km / h at certain times!

The flight was completed in the middle of the bush between eucalyptus and
kangaroos at night was falling. A little freaked out to serve as a snack of
snakes or wild pigs, I've been through a few kilometres in the black night to
the frontal watching my every step.

Then I had the huge bowl of fall on farmers who took me to 22 h00 in their camp
to taste a piece of meat. After a special 60 km on the roads in earth hung in
the dumpster of 4 x4, I found my team to 0:00 to get some rest a little. Back at
base camp this morning to 9:00 after 3 hours of nap in a motel and 5 hours of
slalom between the wild goats and kangaroos, I'm rinsed... The Trace of the
flight is on http://airtribune.com/charles.
