First flights of 2023 and on my new Swift 6! Since I'm a lot more picky nowadays about the days I fly, I decided to step down to an EN-B (my first in 20 years!). I'm happy to say it's not much of a difference, performance-wise to an EN-C, but has an easier mental workload. I'm also happy to be on a brightly-colored glider for improved visibility and safety.
I hadn't flown since October 2022 so definitely some cobwebs to dust off. Not really XC conditions but it was fun to fly around for 2 hours in light lift and make sure my reflexes and instruments are still up-to-snuff :) I think Alex and myself were the only ones to get high enough to drift back to the cellphone antennas.
