This was demonstrated by Mark and Bob in the Lasham Duo by releasing lower than planned over stage 2 and then descending slowly back to the airfield.
Derek and Merv had more success in T1 with a long tow to stage 3 which enabled a 2 hour flight along the main ridge.
Having been spoilt by the good weather all week Ray and Mark opted not to fly but James flew with Merv to get more video footage with his GoPro. Despite their best efforts they didn't quite manage to get established in the wave which set up at the end of the day.

A perfect sunset to finish |
The Lasham K21 has arrived safely so hopefully the rest of the expedition will be as lucky with the weather as we have been.

Another fine meal cooked by Morag in the apartment ended a fantastic week of good weather, food and company.
Bob.
A good week. Many thanks to Merv for putting up with my flying and to Morag and Mike for their culinary expertise. Derek C
