Now finally the update about the Vuelta project. (Huh, that was
somewhat intense flying and also overall quite energy demanding travelling
through this heat wave with +46°C temperature at times). Here is The Spanish
Vuelta map with the Tasks for the first 5 days. The whole line summed up to 905
km crossing Spain from the Valdasador in West towards Alp in the very North
Eastern corner of Catalunia. On the map attached one can see the whole line of
tasks for that exciting and very intense flying journey. These were 5 days over
Spain which are worth the effort and the energy you spend. And I hope to join
the next Vuelta to see more of this absolutely amazing landscape and the country
of Tapas.


The day 3. Some long waiting for better launch conditions were rewarded by
another 205 km flatlands flying with ending up in a very green corner of Spain
around Soria.


On the day 4 we had an ambition to cross the wide and traditionally stable
valley of the river Ebro, which didn't work out this time, so the flight was
shortened to about 80km instead of initial plan of 240 km.


The main challenge of the day 5 was to get out of the valley of Benabarre, which
lays right on the left side of famous Ager. That was quite a peculiar feeling to
fly over the places which we normally see from the other side of the beautiful
gorges and lakes. Also the higher you were the cooler the air was - good
motivation to stay high on these days.


I am still gathering my head around this trip, so will continue putting the
tracklogs and the new photos.


Yep, there were two miss-outs for me - on the day 4 as I wrote, and the day
five finished earlier than planned with an overcast on the way to the goal.
Otherwise was good, I think I covered about 640 out of the 750 possible.
