Raw video from 1000K triangle world record flight 7/9/24 Ely

[Steve Koerner]

This 20 minute video is from the peak soaring period beginning about 1450. I wish it had all been exactly like this but the beginning and end of the flight were not as easy for me. The 15m record, of course, is subject to homologation. 

I'm a newbie with the action camera so I apologize for the phone in the way and the fact that you can't read the instruments.

Note the terrain that we fly over around Ely - landouts can be, and often are, all-day affairs. Airports are few and far between. Beginners need not apply.
