Notes Sallandse Overland Dag. My first ever cross country flight. Cloudbase @ 1500mtr AGL. Thermeled with buzzards, how nice is that! Sven picked the route, I tried to point the nose where he wanted to go. Managed to get it right most of the time ;-)
After 2,5 hours I was cold, thirsty, hungry and feeling sick but loving every second of it!
