This time flying w/o engine power up . New impression ... and really impressive! 40 minutes flight starting at Nebelhorn (2224 m), via Geißfuß and Gaisalphorn (1953 m), then crossing the valley to the Schattenberg, flying over Oberstdorf and back to earth.
You can see the GPS plot in the next picture of this blog.
