Directions to Chile

Post by **tomceunen** » Mon Dec 12, 2005 9:49 pm

5 years in a row now I spend part of the winter in Chile.
High pressure makes life niceb here.
Had two flights already, both XC with new stuff I did never before. Possibillities are endless here.
Sorry guys but nothing compared with VA-PA at the moment.
Will get some news in the Skyline but at request some info here.
No photos as my ftp does not work? But trust me it looks nice.
Cheers
Tom
FLY CHILE!

Sounds good, Tom! Keep us posted about your flights! Wish I could join you for the warm weather, great XC flights and strong thermals.

Cheers,

Marcel

LIMCHE,CHILE
The house with the biggest lawn and pool is the family house. At the left it are all advocado trees. Couple of minutes later the whole family was in the garden waving at me.

SANTIAGO,CHILE
In the center there is a great flying place. I took this foto during an evening flight

SANTIAGO,CHILE
The mountains opposite of the city are too good to be true! Foto taken from the central flying place in the city.

But you didn't land in the garden, did you?

Cheers,

because of the multiple obstacles I did not take the risk...

CACHAGUA

Nice little site I visit when I go visit the beach, soaring with the seagulls.

Big flight with some local friends, enjoy the landscape. The story will be in the next Skyline.
Cheers Tom

Flying from on site in the city to another one. Landing at 9PM. Dramatic view on the 'city' mountains.
Cheers
