Here's my first review - back in Feb 2000 - of my Laminar Easy 16. I'll update it soon to be more up to date, since there's a lot of flying under the wings since then. 12:03:32 PM     This is a track of my 2h35 flight 1st June. CB was low-ish, 1650m, but nice clouds and thisin the end allowed a run right out in front nearly 10km. Back to Sasso and climbed up to the restaurant. Nothing better than floating out 1000m above your own house at cloudbase... 9:53:10 AM     Flight Saturday 22 June 2002 Flew for 1h15 or so in disappointing - even boring - conditions. I got quite excited because CB looked like it might be high, it was clear etc. But inversion at 1400m blocked everything and the lift was pretty poor. Sasso to Nudo, back, back to Nudo, over to Sangiano and landed. 9:14:35 AM     Epic. True Grit. Dreams are made of this. Makes 700km on a hang glider seem a doddle. Read it here. 9:10:41 AM
