Ridge soaring the Kaimai range in an ASW20BL full of water.
A few of us from Auckland Gliding Club paid a visit to Matamata for a days ridge running. This is the first time I have flown my 20B with its all up max weight of 525kgs.
In this flight I wanted to see what difference extra water a 20B model can take makes compared to a standard A model 20.
