Gliders > Slope Soaring
Hvolsfjall - Just so you don't think it's all rocks and sea!

Finally got the right wind to test out a mountain about an 90 minutes drive from home.
It actually has grass on the top side and a drivable path up the side.
So who knows maybe a certain Ka3 or a Straton might end up flying there in a not too distant future!
No sound of wind this time, just for you Keith! :wink:

Fred:
That looks like a very nice slope Sverrir! :clap:
Looks like more than one wind direction is possible no? :?:
selleri:
It is! Should be flyable in V-NA wind directions.
Happy Days:
I'm amazed! I had no idea there were such massive flat grasslands in Iceland. Bit of a surprise, being such a geologically active country. Is it a river flood plain?.Good to see the people in Iceland wear the same sort of summer cloths as in Ireland
Anyway, looks a super place to fly. And someone had the sense to bring a flying wing along to the party. Pity we didn't see any combat, never mind! Looks like a good time was had by all regardless.
Oh! and I much prefer the sound track to that of wind over mic'. Nice one Sverrir :clap:
L Keith.
billscottni:
Keith, they weren't wearing the same summer clothes as Ireland! I didn't see any waterproofs :wink:
What was the funny blue stuff in the sky? Not much of that around here this year :(
