Frankfort area in October
I'll likely be in the the Frankfort area (Bensheim) mid-late October. Is
there any soaring to be done there at that time of year? Thanks in advance. |

Stefan Stefan That time of year most glider clubs in Germany are operating on the weekend in nice weather. The thermals are much more elusive at this time of year. If you need more info let me know and I'll check with some soaring contacts in the area. Bob And if you have time you can drive/fly to the Alps for some good flying. |

Well, even in the Alps, thermals are rare beasts at this time of the year...
but then, you might hit wave. -- Bert Willing ASW20 "TW" "Bob" a écrit dans le message de news: ... Stefan wrote in message I'll likely be in the the Frankfort area (Bensheim) mid-late October.

Bert
We are going to Zell am See this weekend (3 hour drive) and they should have themals if it is sunny. Also they may have wave. Here's to hoping!. Bob "Bert Willing" wrote in message ...
