I was flying out of Gawler on a 1000 k attempt and climbed to 17600' after a
low point of 900' but missed my diamond hight by 50' according to Parafield
Instruments and the O.O.
A fellow flying out of Waikerie climbed to 18500' and got his diamond hight
in thermals.
I missed my 1000 k and am still trying for both.
