[052EN]Glider Flight No.103: Solo Flight at Portmoak

There are more similar videos on my YouTube channel.

This is part of the upcoming review of the CUGC Christmas Expedition to Portmoak (Scottish Gliding Union), 2018.

My 103rd glider flight at Portmoak airfield in an ASK-21 (G-CHPW), winch launch on runway 28L. Made an attempt to soar on the Bishop hill, but I was reluctant to enter the cloud under such conditions.

A high base and final was used, because I reserved the possibility to be diverted to other runways, given that on the previous day, I had two landings where I was not able to land on the planned runway. There was one occasion where I was forced to change my plan twice.

As an aside, I have recently updated to WordPress 5.0. My opinion is mixed: the new editor is certainly 100x better than the original one, given that the functionality to subtract everything into blocks and manage them at ease. However, there seems to be a bug which I am currently working on: might as well be a problem with my environment. I am still exploring the other new functions.
