13 to 30 June 2008, Aprica!
morning Andrew took off from Foppolo but ... He "laundry" wildly.
Soon fact due to the lack of conditions was found to land in the valley and decided to walk back to the passage of the Vienna and take off from there.
doing so has managed to fly over the pass in Valtellina and during the flight to take the first "true" thermal since it started 13 days ago from Monte Carlo. He left to 3500mt.
And 'take-off dell'Aprica landed just before the storm.
L ' Aprica will, therefore, its take-off tomorrow. Unfortunately
Andrea has paid much the two foot lift today (especially the second to 2500 meters above the pace of the Vienna ) and has remedied a foot blister ...
weather forecast this week give instability in the coming days (time), especially tomorrow and Thursday due to humid air to enter due to cold fronts, with regard to distance, starting from about 350 km, 200 are missing in Lienz .

Piercing Kate Playground
too difficult day today, for a change ... the foundations have been very low: in tune with the 1700 and even lower in Valsassina Brembana val.
Pierandrea also had to land twice on the way to wait for the depletion of rain.
E 'landed to Barzi, in Val Brembana. E 'in virtually Sondrio, but to go in Valtellina are at least 2400 meters of the Vienna step. Today
take off from the parts of Foppolo.

This morning was pretty bad and in Laveno spiovacchiava. The day, however, adjusted and overcome the difficulty of not landing in the hole was able to get going and head east.
The bases were still at around 1600 meters with peaks of 1800 for which the flight was not a walk ... After the
Lema at the mountain Gradiccioli met with very strong winds from the northwest that have made the continuation of the flight very busy especially in the area shear with sustained winds below.
Andrea went to the north of Lake Lugano and landed in the village of Pradello Bellano, hence the past Lake Como and on the road that leads to Alpe Giumello, what should be its take-off tomorrow , for a total of about seventy miles.

Day 10, Lake Maggiore passed
After a first flight from Unchio that the strong stability has reserved only a half-plane, Andrea had to resign and try again from Mottarone .
After an hour and a half struggle to pierce the reversal and then 700 meters to take off in a thermal intermittent debolisima and headed towards the other side of the lake towards Sangiano. E 'come to the other side but did not find any ancestry to hang up.
okay, even though few miles were covered today is lasica behind an obstacle for Aerological these days has been immense.
now landing parties of Laveno and tomorrow will be his departure for the prosecution.
PS: exceeded the 280km distance from starting and even the midpoint towards Lienz!

Day 9 - Nembi!
Pierandrea fought for hours in the morning, with the too much stability and bases when it was good and could make the bubble just arrived only to 1600 meters . With great effort he was making efforts to reach the area where the Cannobbio Lake Maggiore is narrower and therefore less need to share through.
Unfortunately, when he was passing near Unchio came very fast from the West storm front triggered by an input of air which has invested more Fedde whole northern part of Piedmont, the stronger the storm has done its Lake Maggiore.
E Pierandrea situation has gone from not being able to go up to fail to come down and fight with very strong updrafts, I remind the reader that the meeting with a heap cloud (both for the aspirations that discharges) can be very dangerous for a paraglider. After a number of spirals and other circus acts is riucito to land, there is near Unchio "take off" drivers who use verbano and should be your starting point in the morning.
Beside the radar image of the North Italy at 17.45 where we see the storm that has already moved on hills of Lombardy and the south east of Switzerland.
Pierandrea Unfortunately for the crossing of the lake will be postponed until tomorrow.
Today has not been possible to overcome the Lake Maggiore!

How To Usehair Bonding Glue
Day 8, arriving at Lake Maggiore
Today Pierandrea has managed to overcome a big obstacle: the Val Sesia . And
'left this morning from Mombarone above Ivrea, 1800 meters and was a move very apt: the other pilots who took off from Andrate have never been able to overcome a thousand meters of altitude.
But he always flying above the thermal inversion has managed to keep the internal ridges of Biella and then, through the Val Sesia and traversing south of Varallo, a land upstream of Lake Orta outside Gravellona Toce after 56km as the crow flies.
Tomorrow will take off from 'alpe Quaggione , which is a fairly high take-off, which works well from the morning and that will allow you to choose how to cross the Lake Maggiore, another "rock" of course important.
probably will not choose to go to Switzerland, despite the greater potential in terms of flights, due to the fact that throughout tomorrow and probably until Friday, is expected in the area supported a South-West.
