Central Spain with a paraglider in the middle of summer? Great idea for XC flying. We followed one week in July the convergence lines in the Spanish flatlands and mountains at over 4000 meters altitude. Dominic Rohner from PARAWORLD.CH provided us next to all the retrieve logistics with ticks and trip on how to succeed in the flats. As a group we managed to turn this into practice and could fly a number of 100km+ flights, be it one way or triangles. Everybody landing early could still enjoy long evening flights until sunset over the heat of the valley. On two days, due to strong southerly winds, we tried a new flying site close to Lagunilla and could enjoy next to some tomatoes, fantastic evening flights.
