475km glider flight - Cedar Valley, UT to Kemmerer, Wy

Sept 27, 2008 - Bruno Vassel IV filmed a cross country flight in his ASW-20BL sailplane from Cedar Valley, Utah to Kemmerer, Wyoming and back home. At the furthest out I was 131 miles downwind from Cedar Valley and it was snowing ice crystals from the clouds all around me. Fun!

I talk quite a bit about what is happening during the different stages of the flight and what I am concerned about in getting back home. The flight ended up being 5.5 hours long, my altitude ranged between 10,000 ft and 17,000 ft MSL. Overall, a very fun and beautiful day to fly!
