Brasil tour 2010

Hi , well were finished another tour to Brasil this has been year 10 ... ahhhhh , where does time go . We had 6 on tour and another 6 ex students in GV this year , so their were about 13 of us Canucks flying Gv . The weather was great when we arrived and from what I heard had been nice for the past 6 weeks prier to us coming into Gv . Cloud base was very high this year 8000-10,000ft which is great for XC . Wendy , Steve, Ron , Chris , and Laura and Dominic had their personal best flights ,both in altitude , time and distance. They seemed to be out flying each other on any of the days , all were landing at the 35km mark and Laura and Ron both landed because they had had enought but i'm sure could have flown farther if they had wanter too ...
Day 6 or seven the weather came in on us and we were able to fly but not far and were doing extended sledders to the landing area. Doug did his personal best and logged 300km in 3 days one of the days flying Tandem with richard to 100km mark , good work doug . Greg and I were working and did not get great flights during this time , but it was a fun year working with this group. See you all in Brasil next year and lets fly further ..... chow
