Wim just got back from a few days away and he&#8217;ll be tied up tomorrow with domestic issues, so he won&#8217;t be around to fly with either.<\/p>\n<p>So I&#8217;ve planned a super flight that I&#8217;ll do just by myself tomorrow, that will take me out of the Dordogne into the Corr\u00e8ze, then into the Auvergne and finally into the Lot before returning to Malbec. Here&#8217;s a shot of the route.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/micro-trike.co.uk\/images\/24jul16.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/micro-trike.co.uk\/images\/24jul16_s.jpg\" alt=\"null\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>The whole route is around 288 km, so too long for Wim in his Weedhopper and if he&#8217;d wanted to fly tomorrow, I&#8217;d have restricted it to just something like out to Figeac in the Lot and back again. But as it&#8217;ll just be me in the Savannah, I&#8217;ll do the whole route in a flight time that should be just over 2 hours, or say 2\u00bd including allowances for landings and take offs.<\/p>\n<p>77ASY is all ready to go with full tanks and a clean windscreen, so with a bit of luck I should be able to get away by around 9.00 am. That means that if I don&#8217;t hang around too much, I could be back before the worst of the thermals begin to bubble up. All I&#8217;ll take with me is a cold drink.
