Contour flying in Chile

... some of our pilots in the Western Cape do a lot of it, so the rest of us can immediately appreciate and admire a master at work in ridge flying - this is the map and the barogram from a flight by Carlos Roca V in Chile - the barogram shows a lot more green than we are accustomed to!



The flight was 852km - in essence a perpetual beat up ;-)
