Geoff,
Your site has had a great start to the Wave Season but don't forget
Bunyan - the Australian altitude record was flown from Bunyan is over 10
years old and still stands - bring it on.
Tom, 10,000ft wave flight hits about 0.5 on our excitement meter, we would
find that frustrating and disappointing.

Hi Tom,
Suggest you venture east to the Grampians if you are serious about wave
flying - May was a fantastic month for us. GAX flew 3 flights (May 4, 19
and 30) for an aggregate gain of height of just short of 56,000 feet, with
best height gain 22,915 feet to 27,277 feet AMSL and that in a humble 30
year-old PIK 20B with no motor.
